Groovy Disco Tech (GDT)
Now, I'm nowhere near cool enough to go to GDT, the Tuesday night choice for many students. If high-energy disco, house or 'anything that slaps' is your cup of tea make your way down to World Headquarters for back-to-back hits in these low ceiling rooms.
Soho Rooms
If you play any type of sport you've likely had the pleasure (or displeasure) of visiting Soho on a Wednesday night in fancy dress with your team. A lot of people do love Soho, and it does have a lot of appeal to students. A whopping 4 floors, drinks deals, and a variety of music certainly make for a good (and usually messy) night.
The Social Club
One of Newcastle's newer venues, this club offers a good variety for anyone seeking a night out in the week. Tropiloco serves up house and RNB on a Monday, Kult gives you a generous helping of indie on a Thursday and Casa on a Friday night is always a packed-out hit for students. Also pretty cheap, so decent for a student-budget night out in the Toon.
Market Shaker
Some say it's a club, others say it's a bar, but most would agree it's iconic. Shaker is a bit like Gogglebox, it can be naff and cheesy, but it always guarantees a pretty good time. Also, it's free entry and cheap during the week - two things that aren't to be overlooked. Do be warned though, if you're someone who doesn't like ABBA you may want to put your fingers in your ears, (or just do the right thing and grow up.)
The Cut
Finishing off is my favourite club in Newcastle, safe to say I've exhausted it one too many times. The Cut is host to some of Newcastle's best indie nights, with all your favourites being spun every week. They love a good themed night too, and who couldn't resist a Catfish vs old Arctic Monkeys on a Thursday night. The cocktails are 2-4-1 most of the time as well, meaning a good time can be had for a relatively cheap price.
