Embark on a journey through Newcastle as your team uncovers a secret trail by discovering clues, solving puzzles, and completing challenges, all while earning points via the unique GQA app. Experience the area’s main attractions, uncover its hidden treasures, and learn some insider history and fun facts along the way.

Your Toon adventure kicks off at the Castle Keep, the namesake of Newcastle, then meanders through Grainger Town down to the Quayside and River Tyne. Along the route, encounter a vampire rabbit, delve into Newcastle’s railway heritage, find out how a local mayor saved St Nicholas’ Cathedral, see the first building illuminated by light bulbs, and even hear a ghost story or two.

So shout ‘Wey Aye,’ slip on some comfortable shoes, and get ready to explore the sights, discover hidden gems, and ultimately, conquer your Newcastle Quest.
