Newcastle Dress Code?

Right its my birthday on Saturday and we've planned for a group of lads to hit Newcastle and tbh I'm scared and nervous about it all, especially the dress code! What usually goes? Was thinking a checkered shirt, jeans and some pumps, much like these? http://www.jonbarrie.co.uk/pumps-c23/original-penguin-brewton-canvas-pump-charcoal-p604

Will that be accepted into clubs? Also ive read a few people mention things about coats? I mean I will have to bring one as we are coming from Leeds but what will happen when we all turn up with smart coats on?

Yeah mate that is fine for clubs! There will be a lot of Geordies about on a Saturday with their low cut V-necks, but a fair few will be in similar attire to you! You just put a coat in the cloakroom in a club! Usually 2-3 pounds! Or leave it in your hotel if you are staying in one! Despite what people say, Newcastle is not THAT cold.

So jeans and them shoes will be accepted? gooood just scared about being refused entry! And good shout will do haha not looking forward to all the pretty boys out but hey ho, is it a fairly cheap night, how much is usual entry to clubs? Anywhere you recommend I go to? Also what time do the clubs shut? Thanks

Yeah they will! Haha Just be careful not to wind up the pretty boys as they may take you for Newcastle students, and some do not like us! Yeah it is usually cheap. Entry varies between £5-7 and on a Saturday definitely Digital or Riverside! Also, if you are going to riverside go to bar 38 beforehand where you get three trebles for a fiver! Clubs shut at 3-4.

Iv lived in Newcastle all my life and been "clubbing" for 5 years most weekends.
1. Do not wear a coat. No matter what. You will stand out and only few clubs had cloakrooms. Don't bother just freeze, we all do.
2. The shoes are fine but make sure none of your mates are wearing white trainers as some places won't let you in.
3. Don't wear a v-neck t-shirt, you will get the piss taken out of you.
4. Don't go to the bigg market or the gate. It's rough as **** and minging.
5. Book a taxi, don't go to central station and expect to walk into a taxi you will be there for 2 hours freezing.
You will have the best night of your life, it's a amazing city and I'm really proud to call it home. If you've got any more questions al happily answer.

Haha thanks i will keep that in mind! And ah not too bad and dont know anywhere in Newcastle but will ask around where them 2 are, are they close by the centre then? Or is riverside a trek away? And 3-4! Shiiitt haha we arent staying over getting first train back at 8 o clock, **** life is there anything to do after then or are we going to have to sit in the train station for 4 hours lmao?

Haha yeap but if you are very drunk you could lose a lot! Ah it is not that hard if you are decent looking and have good chat! Trust me you will have a great time!

Last question, would just my provisional license be an accepted form of ID?

Yeah as long as you are 18!

Grandd Thank you!

Finally been doing some research on where to go and ive found some apparently good places so heres my list

Digital
Riverside
Bar 38
Ikon
Sinners
Basement
Whetherspoons
Powerhouse (gay bar i think?)

What would you do and go for pre drinks and then for the main party?

thanks again

If I was hitting Digital on a Saturday I would probably hit sinners and/or basement then head on. If I was hitting Riverside I would hit Bar 38 and or Vic 22's then head on! You could also try Mimo's which is closeish to both of them! As for the rest I have not been to them so can not help you there sorry!

Granddd thanks, would or could you not do say Bar 38 then Digital or whatever or is it a trek and easier to do your options?
