Don’t miss this chance to be part of a special event that combines culture, beauty, and community in one of the UK’s most vibrant cities!

Trains to Newcastle are super frequent and we advise you get the 10am train from London Kings Cross which arrives into Newcastle just in time for lunch at 12.52pm. Train tickets book up well in advance so get your Open Return Ticket now from £168. Hop off the train at Newcastle Central Station and get ready to explore the city. The station is centrally located, so you’re right in the thick of things from the get-go.

Walk five minutes from the train station to the historic Grainger Market and everyone can get the food and drinks they need. There's nothing I love more than to go to a city's food market as a way to get acquainted and eat a little bit of everything. I love Las Ramblas in Barcelona and Grand Central Market in DTLA so Grainger Market has a familiarity that I love. For lunch, you have so much to choose from Cuban, pizza, Indian, American, Japanese but Cubano's is currently my fave.

Take a walk five minutes and spend a moment in the Books For Amnesty. They have a brilliantly curated selection of second hand books and if you're anything like me, you'll be lugging and bunch home on the train.

The hotels up North are very reasonably priced and you should find a decent stay between £60-£120. We advise you partner up with another Member and share a room.

• Motel One Newcastle: For a more affordable option, Motel One has a cool, minimalist design and a location in the heart of the city. Its just a few minutes walk from Fenwick Newcastle, where we will be attending the party. It’s perfect for those who appreciate a stylish, budget-friendly stay, however, there are no baths! It's also has our favourite coffee shop next door and a cool Gin bar across the road. Its a 6 min walk to Fenwick Newcastle.

• Malmaison Newcastle: A chic boutique hotel with riverside views along the Quayside, Malmaison is stylish and Instagram-worthy. The rooms have a modern-industrial vibe, and you’ll be in walking distance of bars and restaurants. This is a good hotel to get a twin room and share with another Stack World Member. Its a 6 min taxi / 20 min walk to Fenwick Newcastle.

• The Vermont Hotel: If you prefer something a little more luxurious with a classic twist, The Vermont is a gorgeous option. It's near the iconic Tyne Bridge, offering breathtaking cityscape views and the most bustling bars.

• Hotel Du Vin Newcastle: Is a little bit further of a walk but you get these beautiful views along the river. I stayed in a room with a freestanding bath so I was happy! Its a 6 min taxi / 29 min walk to Fenwick Newcastle.

Take a walk back to your hotel to rest and recharge for our big night out! Dress code: Beauty meets Business - You know what to do... One thing I will say is bring a good coat! It's cold up North!

If you're not ready for bed, then join me at Mother Mercy, the award winning cocktail bar and speakeasy where we can hang and chat all evening!

If you fancy something a little quieter and you're staying at Motel One, then you must check out The Gin Closet, a gorgeous tiny little bar which is perfect for one quick drink before bed.

After you've checked out at your hotel, grab a coffee at Laneway Coffee which seems to be the place to hang out. There were lots of people co working and having meetings when I popped in and it's the best cortado I've had out of London so far...

meet us back at Fenwicks for Breakfast options in the food hall. We'll be having networking conversations at the tables.

Join us for our business events throughout the morning including a fireside chat with Kimberley Cattin and trend report from the Fenwick buying team!
