Full Description

Set in the heart of Newcastle’s cultural quarter, The Biscuit Factory offers couples a truly unique backdrop to their special day unlike anything else you’ll find in the city. Located in the Ouseburn Valley, The Biscuit Factory is an art, craft and design gallery housed within a former Victorian warehouse that dates back to the 1860s. Inside, you’ll find a stunning collection of contemporary work, encompassing everything from original paintings and prints to glass, ceramics and even jewellery. Exposed brickwork and original ceiling beams all add to the character of this beautiful space and it’s easy to see why the venue was shortlisted for Best City Venue in the 2016 UK Wedding Awards. Adjoining the main gallery is the venue’s purpose-built function suite, The Biscuit Room, one of the largest venues in Newcastle. Best described as a blank canvas – this room can be re-imagined into the wedding of your dreams.
