If you get on it quick, you might be able to get your hands on some last minute tickets to Wallows’ Model Tour at the 02 City Hall. Alt-Rock trio Dylan Minnette, Braeden Lemasters and Cole Preston will perform this Friday, 18th October, supported by Matilda Mann. Sounds like the perfect end to a hard week of studying x

2. Nia Archives

More of a raver? Got no plans for Halloween? We’ve got you covered. Queen of jungle Nia Archives makes her way to NX Newcastle on the 31st October, bringing you her mercury prize nominated album Silence is Loud. A tapestry of genres, you’re guaranteed an unforgettable night.

3. Alfie Templeman

Begin your Saturday night out with the groovy beats of Alfie Templeman as he brings his newest album Radiosoul to the Boiler Shop on Saturday 2nd November. With soulful undertones to his classic indie pop rock sound, you’re bound to spend the night having a boogie.

4. The Libertines

The Libertines are taking to the stage at NX Newcastle on Tuesday 5th November. Think rock. Think The Dog and Parrot. This gig is in super high demand, with general sale sold out, but resale tickets are floating about!
