COME TOGETHER MUSIC EVENT ON TOWN MOOR SET TO SEE MULTI-MILLION POUND IMPACT
A MAJOR music festival that brought Robbie Williams and Kings of Leon to Newcastle's Town Moor is expected to have given the city's economy a multi-million pound boost.
Thousands of fans flocked to the Come Together festival last week for two huge nights of music, which also featured the likes of Andrew Cushin, Perrie Edwards, and the Kaiser Chiefs.
And city bosses are now backing calls for the celebration to return next year.
City centre business improvement district company NE1 Ltd is still assessing the full economic impact of the festival, but said it would "love to welcome it and other events of this scale back to the city".
