About the Quays

Gateshead Quays is the historic heart of Gateshead. Gateshead Quays was a prosperous settlement in the Roman Times, and during the Industrial Revolution and Victorian Era it became one of the focal points for industries in the North East due to its easily accessible port.

The area fell into decline in the 1970's and 1980's as those industries declined. Today however, Gateshead Quays is being converted into a truly unique arts and cultural space, unparalleled to anything else in Europe.

Gateshead Council and partners are dedicated to delivering a cutting edge, world-class arts, leisure and residential destination for residents and tourists alike. More than £250 million has been injected into the re-generation and 100's of new jobs have been created (with more projects following in the near future).
