Instead of the usual Father's Day fare of new socks, miniature whiskey sets and classic comedy DVDs, why not go the extra mile this year and take him out for a meal, or get him tickets to a gig? Newcastle hosts many events over the weekend and don't worry, you don't have to take your Dad raving with you.

From 5D movie experiences to rock and blues festivals, via an audience with Roy Chubby Brown creator Royston Vasey - there's plenty of stuff for your Da on his day in the spotlight. Browse through more Father's Day events in Newcastle below.

Father's Day Events Guide

Newcastle is undoubtedly one of the best night's out in England (in no way is this opinion based on Geordie Shore). With its cutting edge venues, cosy bars and rip-roaring nightclubs you'll find everything you need in key hotspots that stretch from the quayside up to the Bigg Market.

Popular hotspots include Hoochie Coochie if you're into your grooves, Cosmic Ballroom for lovers of underground grooves, plus the renowned Digital. Check out Tup Tup Palace and World Headquarters if you're looking for a student party.

On the gig tip, there's great shows happening at the Boiler Shop, with the O2 Academy also welcoming some big names into the city. If you're after something more intimate, check out The Cluny or Think Tank.
