The Sage Gateshead

This music center and concert venue was central to the redevelopment of Gateshead Quays, fronting the River Tyne opposite Newcastle's famous Quayside area. Designed by internationally renowned architect Norman Foster, this stunning building houses a concert hall, a seat studio, a music school with teaching, practice, and rehearsal rooms, a state of the art Music Information Center together with bars, cafes and retail units. Just a short walk along the Quay is the Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art.
