Great North CityGames
Now entering its fifth year, the Great North CityGames has become an established highlight in an action packed sporting weekend for the region.
Staged the day before the Bupa Great North Run, the event is once again set to bring world class competition to the NewcastleGateshead Quayside.
Taking place on a unique, purpose built track in the heart of the city, the exciting format lets spectators get up close to the action and best of all - it’s completely free to spectate.
Last year crowds of over 25,000 watched performances from some of the most recognisable names in international sport - including Mo Farah, Double Olympic Champion, Greg Rutherford, Olympic Champion and Christian Taylor, Olympic Champion.
No need for tickets, come down and enjoy international athletics in in the North East - completely free of charge!
