Newcastle and the Tyne & Wear area have a strong indoor karting offering with TeamSport Newcastle as the headline venue. The city's reputation as a major stag and hen destination makes it one of the busiest TeamSport locations in the North of England — Friday and Saturday evenings book up well in advance.
The venue runs electric karts on an indoor circuit, catering for everything from spontaneous arrive & drive sessions mid-week to large group corporate events at weekends. The arrive & drive model means no pre-booking is strictly required for individuals, but groups of 6+ should always reserve in advance.
For stag parties: Newcastle is arguably the UK's premier stag do city, and karting is one of the default activity choices. Most stag packages in the city include an afternoon karting session followed by the evening on the Bigg Market or Quayside. Multi-group racing formats with a podium ceremony and championship points are available at corporate and event rates.
Getting there: accessible by Metro and car. Check the individual venue page for the postcode and nearest transport links.
