Overview

Newcastle is the ultimate student city.

Imagine heading home from class and enjoying a sunset coastal walk or a summer afternoon by the beach, and studying outside in lush parks or at a cool café with friends.

On the weekends, enjoy Newcastle’s rich cultural scene. Explore museums and galleries, or hit the streets and check out the incredible street art. At night, the streets come alive. Catch a gig, eat your way through a tasting menu at an award-winning restaurant, or visit bars hidden away in historic buildings.
