Came for a concert and a meal in the cafe. Not much choice for gluten and dairy free. Ended up with the ubiquitous baked potato. Disappointed.
On the other hand it is possible to get there in a wheelchair from all over Tyneside by bus and metro. And be well catered for in every way.

Nice view

Nice view
But the glass makes it like a green house... good to warm up in the winter but bad in the summer

Really needs ventilation or fans ....uncomfortable to sit in

Beautiful building. It's a prominent speck on the Newcastle city view. Right next to the gates millennium bridge. Looks great at night as well. Famous for the shows/ performances too. Has a quite interior and usually isn't crowded.

My brother was visiting from abroad and we wanted to do something special to mark the occasion so we went to hear The Michael Nyman Band who were playing in Hall One. The music was stunning and totally engrossing. The twelve piece band filled the room with layer after layer of melody - and you could...

We went to see Tim Minchin, we got directed downstairs initially however an usher advised we were in the wrong seats and asked us to move upstairs. Upon moving upstairs we were then refused entry because the show had started so we missed the majority of the first half of the show.
The fact the us...

Worked there for years so please allow for a certain bias!
Go to hear the Royal Northern Sinfonia, Mogwai, or Kathryn Tickell on Northumbrian pipes - or just for the view. Superb halls; excellent musical mix; great participation programme (from pre-birth to near death); friendly, helpful staff; oh ...

The Sage is a nice venue, but the programme of concerts is a little disappointing for a city of this size. Both of the main performance spaces are excellent, and there are places to eat. Situated on the banks of the Tyne, there is good sirloin and public transport links, and they are wheelchair frie...

Been a couple of times now to see very different shows and I like it. Seating is comfortable and you have plenty of room between seats. There are no bad views, every seat has an unobstructed view of the stage. There is on site parking however in our experience it takes a long time to get out after t...

Stunning building, with good seating, excellent acoustics and decent toilet provision. Food, drinks and parking are a bit pricey, but that's normal at these types of venue.
The staff are polite, helpful and efficient.
Great views of the Millennium Bridge, especially when it's illuminated at night.

Was at the Sage for the Americana festival Saturday 22/07, the live music, the venue, the atmosphere all made the day stand out as a good one despite the early intermittent weather. The food inside the building and out in the stalls were good quality and ideal and ran well with the theme of the da...
