About Newcastle Museum

Newcastle Museum was originally established in 1988 as part of a major Bicentennial project for Newcastle. The museum is now located in the Honeysuckle Railway Workshops - three National Trust listed buildings dating back to 1887 and demonstrating unique classic railway architecture. Newcastle Museum has an eclectic mix of industrial and contemporary design spaces available to hire for corporate functions and events. The purpose built McIntyre Theatrette is equipped with a large screen, high-quality digital projector and audio sound equipment. The theatre is available for hire day and night and is perfect for corporate presentations, lectures and workshops. Built to link the BHP and Supernova buildings, the Link Gallery features a beautiful pipe organ and historic Buck locomotive. With detailed brickwork and arched windows as a backdrop, this light and spacious room is perfect for cocktail functions, formal dinner parties, corporate events and product launches. Our BHP Gallery is yet another unique location as you are surrounded by the history of steel making in the region. The lower area of the gallery is available for venue hire and is fantastic for small to medium sized events.
