The Purple Peacock Newcastle

We visited Purple Peacock for a date night and had a fantastic time from start to finish. This was our first experience at an immersive show venue like this and it definitely won’t be our last. We went to see Coyote Wild, which was energetic, fun and incredibly professional. The choreography was impressive and the performers used the entire venue space brilliantly, meaning wherever you were seated you always felt close to the action. The audience interaction really helped make everyone feel part of the experience rather than just watching a stage show from a distance. You can clearly see the amount of rehearsal, effort and talent that goes into the performances. The venue itself is beautiful, with a lovely decorative ceiling and clever set design that adds to the atmosphere. It felt immersive as soon as we walked in. We didn’t eat as we’d already had food beforehand, although plenty of people around us were ordering meals and the food looked good. My wife had cocktails and I had whiskey throughout the evening. One small issue was that whiskey wasn’t available through the online ordering system, but table service was excellent so it wasn’t really a problem. Our server always seemed to appear at exactly the right time to ask if we wanted another drink without ever feeling intrusive. What I also like is that Purple Peacock seems to offer different styles of shows for different audiences. Coyote Wild was wild, energetic and fun, but there are also musicals-themed shows, Clubland events and others, so there really seems to be something for everyone. It’s not a cheap night out, but in my opinion it’s excellent value when you consider the quality of the performances, the atmosphere and the overall experience. We had four rounds of drinks between us and the full show experience, and it cost around the same as a meal for two at a decent steak restaurant. For the entertainment and memories, it was absolutely worth it. The venue was busy, but because everyone has allocated seating it never felt overcrowded or uncomfortable. I’d definitely recommend booking in advance. Easy 5/5 from us.
