Ouseburn Festival – Newcastle Festival Guide
Ouseburn Festival is a free community celebration of music, art, performance and local culture across Newcastle’s Ouseburn Valley. Rather than operating as a ticketed single-site music festival, the weekend uses the area’s venues, creative spaces and public realm for a broad programme aimed at different ages. Live music is an important part of that mix, but it sits alongside visual art, family activity, performance and community events, reflecting the character of Ouseburn itself. This evergreen SoundBite guide tracks the latest dates, programme information and music announcements as each edition develops.
