Aelius Alternative Music Festival – Newcastle City Centre

Aelius Alternative is a brand-new all-day music festival taking place in various venues across Newcastle city centre.

With a lineup of talented artists from a range of different genres, it’s a great way to support the local music scene and emerging artists. Venues include Head of Steam Neville Street, The Globe and Mosaic Tap, and there will even be a comedy stage at Zapatista to showcase the North East’s up-and-coming comedians.

To cap the night, head to the afterparty at The Globe and enjoy goth, post-punk and dark wave below ground, or rock ’n’ roll in the upstairs space.
