Word on the Street INTRODUCING INTERMEZZO Newcastle doesn’t fall short of cool bars to hang out in. But when news of a new opening breaks, we can’t help but get excited! On that note, we’d like to introduce our NE1 readers to the brand spanking new Intermezzo bar, taking over the site of Bierrex. This cinema- themed cocktail bar was previously based at the Tyneside Cinema, before it closed its doors in 2016. But demand is high and it’s back in business, setting up home in a cool new spot on Pilgrim Street. Intermezzo is an all-rounder when it comes to eating and drinking in Newcastle. Go here in the morning for coffee, early afternoon for lunch and then crafty cocktails as day turns to night! What’s not to love? facebook.com/intermezzo82 MELA MOMENTS We’ve got an exciting date for your summer diaries, folks! Newcastle Mela is back in the city on 25th and 26th August 2019 - bringing bundles of culture to the streets of NE1! This year’s line-up brings in people from far and wide, celebrating Pakistani, Bengali, Indian and other South Asian cultures. It’s a great place to learn something new, be entertained, enjoy exotic cuisine, dance to new music, experience fine art and unleash yourself in some of the finest traditions and cultures from around the world. The word ‘Mela’ means ‘to meet’ and originates from the Indian sub continent. It is commonly used to describe a large gathering of people celebrating artistic, religious or political events - a fair or a festival. If that doesn’t sum it up, then we don't know what will! It’s a fab, free family event - make sure you’re a part of it this summer! newcastlemela.co.uk
TIME FOR A PRIDE PARTY! Summer is hotting up and NE1’s events calendar continues to deliver the goods! A July highlight is, and always has been, Northern Pride Festival.

The Town Moor will once again become the Pride Festival Arena, home to the main stage, food and drink and a fairground for family fun; while Exhibition Park joins the festival to become the Community Village - home to youth zones, a health and wellbeing zone and Rainbow Village. This fantastic three-day festival will include the Stonewall Remembrance March, big-name artists including Fleur East, Liberty X and Saara Aalto, and plenty of rainbow flag-waving fun.

10 YEARS OF NEWCASTLE CITY LIBRARY We’re celebrating 10 years of Newcastle City Library this summer, and it’s the perfect opportunity to enjoy and appreciate one of the city’s finest leisure hubs. It took 1,260 construction workers, working with 1,000 tonnes of structural steel over 89,308 square feet, for this now iconic NE1 building to form. And shortly after, Her Majesty the Queen and His Highness the Duke of Edinburgh officially opened the library during a special ceremony on 6th November 2009. To mark the 10 year celebrations, the City Library has been hosting a fines amnesty throughout June, encouraging people to return to the library with all fines waived, so if you've had that copy of Wuthering Heights in your bookshelf for years, pop it back with no panic! Make sure you pay our City Library a visit this summer and stay tuned online for events and workshops. newcastle.gov.uk/services/libraries-and-culture
