Paul Gascoigne to watch World Cup with fans during meet and greet at The Fed in Gateshead

Paul Gascoigne is set to watch the World Cup with fans during a special meet-and-greet event in Gateshead.

The Geordie football legend will share stories of his incredible career at The Fed and join supporters as they watch the last game of the group stages live from 2pm on Sunday, December 4.

It comes as part of the venue's plans to become the 'ultimate fanzone' during the World Cup which will see it host four events to coincide with England’s opening matches.

Fans will be able to watch the games on three huge video walls, starting on Monday, November 21, when England plays Iran. Doors will open at 11am for a 1pm kick-off and there will be free pie and peas on offer.

Tickets are also on sale to watch England take on the USA on Friday, November 25, and for the match against Wales on Tuesday, November 29, while enjoying a pint and pie and peas. Doors open at 5pm for both events, with kick-off at 7pm, and tickets are £20.

But The Fed says the highlight of their events will be when fans get the chance to meet Gazza on December 4.

Tickets start from £30 for a standing space on the balcony, to standard seating at £49 per person or £490 for a table of ten. A VIP package is also available at £69 per person which offers seating in the third and four rows, plus a photograph with the legend to take home.

For those who really want to make it a special occasion, there are also VVIP packages at £79 per person or £790 for a table of ten. This includes a welcome drink on arrival, priority seating in the first two rows and a picture with Gazza.

Bookings are now being taken by emailing info@the-fed.co.uk or calling 0191 460 5353.
