What's On in Newcastle
Monday 10 August 2026 · This weekend · City guide
Monday in Newcastle might just surprise you — the city has a way of turning an ordinary weekday into something genuinely memorable. Head down to the Utilita Arena and let one of art history's greatest visionaries pull you clean out of the working week and into another world entirely.
Highlights
Newcastle Beyond Van Gogh — Step inside the swirling, luminous universe of Vincent van Gogh at the Utilita Arena, where cutting-edge projection technology transforms the entire space into an immersive canvas of sunflowers, starry nights, and electric brushstrokes. This is not a gallery visit — it is a full-body plunge into one of the most emotionally charged bodies of work in art history, with colour and sound wrapping around you on every side. Doors open at 2:30pm, tickets are available via the website, and whether you are a lifelong art lover or someone who has never set foot in a museum, this one will stay with you.
