Welcome to the Newcastle city centre website, an initiative of the Newcastle Alliance, a non-profit body (funded by inner city businesses) to continue the work of revitalising the city centre.

And what a city Newcastle is! It’s Australia’s 6th largest city and its second oldest. Built around a working harbour and fantastic surf beaches, its size and location make it as supremely liveable and welcoming as it is relaxed.

Head for the surf, take in the harbour foreshore, wander through our beautiful parks, hire a bike and discover our amazing architectural heritage or go shopping in our tree-lined Mall. There is no shortage of things to do!

And did we mention the food?

The Hunter region (of which Newcastle is the unofficial capital) produces some of the best food and wine in the country. So whether you’re after a latte and focaccia at a friendly outdoor café or an elegant dinner for two (with a bottle of one of our famous reds perhaps), we’re sure to have it covered.

And if you feel like partying, Newcastle enjoys a reputation as a city with a terrific choice of nightclubs, bars and other entertainment venues where you can dance, chat over a drink, or listen to great music.

So when evening closes in and you feel like kicking on, head to one of our famous pubs or clubs and let our city show you how to really have fun.

We hope our website has what it is you’re looking for but if not please give us a call on 02 4929 4644 and we’ll do our very best to help you.
