Free Tickets
Happy 1st birthday!
A Night Less Ordinary is now 1 year old and across the three Newcastle Theatres we’ve given away over 1000 tickets to people under the age of 26. That’s free seats to stand-up comedy, classic drama, contemporary dance, family-fun, and new writing.
And now in our second year, we’ve listened to you, relaxed the rules, varied the offer even more and opened our doors further to make sure you get to see the best events on offer in Newcastle. You can’t really say fairer than that can you?
Please note, dates below are when free tickets are available and are not indicative of the running dates of each show. Tickets must be booked over the phone or in person, you cannot book free tickets online.
