Hello Newcastle! get ready to put on your dancing shoes and let your rainbow flag fly high, because Bernie's Bar is finally opening its doors!

Located on a historic site that has seen its fair share of queer celebrations, this new joint is ready to take Newcastle by storm. And what better way to honour the past than by having none other than queer royalty Glenda Jackson herself, cut the ribbon?

But that's not all, folks! We've got a Welcome To Country by the mesmerizing burlesque local Vudu Doll, and performances by RuPaul's Drag Race's Jo Jo Zaho and Molly Poppins that'll leave you in awe.

There will be face painters to help you get your rainbow on , an entire menu of delicious food, and fabulous insta-worthy cocktails to make your taste buds sing, including the original recipe Bernie's Bomber from the 70s! And let's not forget the most important part - the company of your fellow queer community members, ready to celebrate love, acceptance, and pride.

So don't wait a second longer, grab your tickets now and secure your spot at the hottest opening party of the year. And did we mention? The tickets are free! So come one, come all, and let's paint the town rainbow!
