Screen on the Green
NE1’s much-loved open-air cinema Screen on the Green takes over Old Eldon Square each summer with sensational film screenings and sporting action.
Showing two to three free films per day from late July to early September at Old Eldon Square, Screen on the Green is the perfect summer activity. Grab some popcorn or a bite to eat from a neighbouring restaurant, relax in one of NE1’s iconic deckchairs and take in some top-class movies – from big blockbusters and family-friendly films to cult classics and rom-coms.
Don't fancy leaving your deckchair? With lead sponsors Uber Eats, you can enjoy some of the city's best restaurants direct to the green with their online food ordering and delivery platform
Alongside over 100 films, Screen on the Green also screens amazing live sports events including action from Wimbledon, the British Grand Prix and Tour de France.
Last year’s Toddler Takeover will also return with screenings of Julia Donaldson book adaptations alongside juice cartons for the little ones and rugs to cosy up on.
There’s even more fun for kids with Play Rebellion, our interactive outdoor play space, and Tiny Toon – a brand-new miniature play village featuring tiny versions of iconic Newcastle locations and landmarks offering kids lots of pretend play fun!
Check out the full film and sports schedule below and swing by Screen on the Green and Old Eldon Square this summer.
Thanks this year to our sponsor, Uber Eats, for supporting our Screen on the Green movie listings.

Film Schedule
Some of the films we show may be classified as 12A. These will be marked on the web schedule and a notice will also appear on the screen before these films.
The British Board of Film Classifications states that films classified as 12A may contain material that is not generally suitable for children aged under 12. No one younger than 12 may see a 12A film in a cinema unless accompanied by an adult. Adults planning to take a child under 12 to view a 12A film should consider whether the film is suitable for that child.
