Grafteoke at The Cluny is set to provide an alternative New Year’s Eve celebration in Ouseburn on Thursday 31 December 2026. The event brings punk-rock karaoke, a live band and a rotating cast of local performers to the Newcastle venue, with doors at 7.30pm.

Rather than a conventional tribute gig, Grafteoke gives musicians and singers the chance to take on songs from bands they love, with the results ranging from faithfully played punk favourites to gloriously unexpected interpretations. The organisers describe the night as a punk-rock karaoke extravaganza, with local participants impersonating bands across a deliberately wide range of styles.
Grafteoke at The Cluny: how the night works
Performers interested in getting up with the band can contact the organisers at grafteoke@gmail.com. The official event information invites people to take part, although the running order and individual guest performers have not been confirmed. It is worth checking with the organisers before the night rather than assuming walk-up performance slots will be available.
The New Year’s Eve setting gives the event a different flavour from a regular club night. Musicians share the stage with friends and local scene regulars, while the audience gets a chance to hear familiar songs played by people who might usually be seen in very different bands. The organisers also say that all profits will go to charity.
The Cluny has been a long-standing home for original live music in Newcastle’s Ouseburn Valley. Its intimate main room is well suited to the kind of lively audience participation that makes this event more than a straightforward covers show.
Tickets, doors and venue details
Advance tickets are advertised at £10 plus booking fees. The event is for ages 18 and over. As this is a New Year’s Eve show, check the latest venue information before making transport plans for the journey home.
