It’s a popular retail location (home to four shopping centres) where you’ll be able to find everything you need and more. Its main shopping street, Linthorpe Road, hosts an eclectic mix of independent boutiques, well-known retailers and designer shops, too. There’s a theatre, galleries showcasing contemporary art and a wide variety of museums. For sports enthusiasts, Riverside Stadium serves as a hub for football matches, while also offering facilities for other sports, including swimming, tennis, and cycling.
