Proper gig place.
Okay
Good venue for a band. Drinks a little pricey

Decent venue for music, but you need a good sense of humour for the toilets and the bar prices - for the amount of money they make on the door and bars, they need to think about reinvestment in the venue and facilities.

Suede where great. Toilets? When does the cleaner start May ? Ode de building site . Venue floor made you feel like Spiderman. That sticky made you feel you could walk up walls after standing on it. Any need for it to be like this? I mean they take enough

Cracking venue for gigs. You can get right to the front if you want to. The only negative point is the lack of decent beer. It's ok if you like Carling!!

Always like visiting this venue but there never seems to be enough bar staff. Obviously people are going to want to drink and they have a fair idea of how many people will be there and to staff accordingly. But other than that I like watching gigs here.

Travelled from North of Scotland for a Blackberry Smoke concert. First time visit to O2 Newcastle. Doors late opening but a clear November evening that was quite mild so no problem. Once in went to the bar for a beer. The barman did ask if More

Live music venue in central Newcastle.
Expensive drinks in plastic beakers.
Quite often I find the sound not very good but it depends a lot on where you stand in the venue.
Very nice venue with lots of room

Reasonably polite staff which isn't always a given at music venues. Drinks exorbitantly priced and poor quality. The area at the top of the stairs at the balcony had the welcoming smell of urine when I visited.
Sound quality was pretty good.
It seems like a pretty slick exercise in wringing ev...

Good central location. Grainger Town multi storey car park nearby, which is free after 5pm. However drinks are v expensive and views from the upper seating area are hampered by a large black steel rail. If you can stand to stand, do that :)

Good size venue for musical events, they get some great bands playing here! Bars are always difficult to get served at unless you are there extremely early and as is the same with most venues there are never enough toilets.
