From the architecture and ace acoustics to the backstage areas where artists warm up, wind down and walk on stage – explore twenty years of music-making stories, secrets and spaces.

Uncover the surprising history of our riverside home, from medieval monasteries and witch trials to the Great Fire of Gateshead. Intrigued? We thought so.
