If you’re one of the unlucky people having to go to work on New Year, or if you’re planning your night out, we’ve produced a guide to travel and timetables on the Tyne & Wear Metro and Go North East and Arriva buses.
There are a whole host of things going on in Newcastle city centre for New Year's Eve, there are loads of VERY late events on and bars and pubs with free entry including an outdoor pub rave if you fancy seeing in 2020 in style without spending a fortune.
