Nightmare on Campus takes over Newcastle University Students’ Union

Nightmare on Campus takes over Newcastle University Students’ Union on Saturday 31 October 2026 for a Halloween club night running from 10pm until 3am.

The Loosedays event returns with a full campus takeover for Halloween, pitching the Students’ Union as a one-night late-night destination for thousands of students. The official Skiddle listing confirms a 10pm start, 3am finish and an 18+ entry policy.

The event is being promoted as a large-scale student Halloween night rather than a conventional live gig. Loosedays is encouraging guests to arrive early because of expected queues, with the organiser warning that the event is likely to be extremely busy.

Entry requires both student identification and government-issued ID. That requirement is specifically stated by the organiser, so anyone heading down should make sure they have both before joining the queue.

Ticket tiers currently shown through Skiddle include an early-bird option at £10 plus booking fee and a general release at £15 plus booking fee. Availability can move quickly for student events of this size, particularly on Halloween itself, so checking the ticket page before travelling is important.

Newcastle University Students’ Union sits on King’s Road, close to the Haymarket end of the city centre. The venue regularly hosts both live shows and club events, but Nightmare on Campus is firmly positioned as a Halloween party with the whole evening centred on the student crowd.

The organiser’s refund terms state that tickets are refundable only if Loosedays cancels the event.

Nightmare on Campus takes place at Newcastle University Students’ Union on Saturday 31 October 2026 from 10pm until 3am. The event is 18+.
