Doing Business at City Events

Newcastle’s city events attract hundreds of attendees from the local area and provide a great opportunity for businesses and organizations to connect with the community in a lively, welcoming setting. There are several ways to partner with the City of Newcastle at these events.

City events feature live performances, food trucks, and vendor booths, and depend on strong community participation. Musicians, small business owners, nonprofit organizations, and food vendors are all encouraged to get involved and help make each event engaging and successful.
