TAKEOVER: Evolution

Calling all teens! For its second year, TAKEOVER is back—a free, after-hours event exclusively for ages 13-17.

Inspired by the Museum’s ‘Surviving Extinction’ blockbuster, this year’s theme is Evolution. Join us for a night filled with live music, hands-on creative stations, VR experiences, computer games, and plenty of free food and giveaways. It’s a night to explore, create, and connect.

Designed as a parent-free, safe space, TAKEOVER offers teens a unique opportunity to gather, express themselves, and feel at home in this vibrant public space. Whether you’re discovering new skills, meeting new friends, or just enjoying the vibe, TAKEOVER is a night to be yourself.

Featuring:
The 3rd Wheels
Helios Band
Hannah Watts

This under-18 takeover of the Museum will be delivered by young people in partnership with Newcastle Museum.
