The Newcastle Student Guide to the Sales
Kickstart the year with a saving in the January Sales. Whether you’re looking for some new clothes, delicious food or even a break abroad, there’s always a deal to be found. In this blog, we’ve provided a Newcastle student guide to the January Sales.
Food and Drink
After much success in previous years, Newcastle’s Restaurant Week is returning for January 2024! Every year, the city’s best restaurants create a bespoke menu for either £10, £15 or £20 per person. This is a great incentive to sample the wide selection of cuisine on offer, from fine dining to Japanese dishes, vegan food and more. The challenge? Try a different restaurant for each of the seven days. Find out more: NE1 Restaurant Week
Shopping
Start the new year with a well-deserved wardrobe update. January is the perfect time to treat yourself to new outfits for lectures, weekends and nights out. Some of the big name shopping brands that usually take part in the Sales include River Island, Next, Hollister and John Lewis. These shops and more can be found at Newcastle’s Eldon Square, a shopping centre in the heart of the city. Plan your visit: Eldon Square
Entertainment

Travel
Travel companies are notorious for discounting their services in January, and Newcastle is the perfect place to take advantage of this. Newcastle has direct train links to cities like Manchester, London, Leeds and Edinburgh - great for if you’re looking for a day of exploring. Venturing further afield? Newcastle International Airport gives you access to over 80 destinations across the globe, whether you’re looking for a week away or a weekend break.
