Dating in Newcastle upon Tyne
In shortNewcastle and Gateshead face each other across the Tyne, so a riverside date is easy. A free gallery is a calm first meeting. Afterwards you can walk the Quayside and see where the evening goes.
A first date idea
BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art
BALTIC sits on the south bank of the Tyne at Gateshead Quays. It's free to all and usually opens Wednesday to Sunday, 10am to 6pm. There's no permanent collection, so there's always a new show to talk about.
