*** STANDING ONLY ***

September 18th 2026 saw the release of Corella’s second album A Beautiful World To Lose, and that same day the band embarked on a seven date tour across the UK, debuting songs live from the album to a rabid response from fans. 

The razor-sharp new sound of A Beautiful World To Lose further bolsters the already imposing live presence of Corella. The new searing riffs, propulsive rhythms and call to arms lyricism, as found in the likes of ‘Rewire’ and ‘Jump Scare’, arrive to send crowds into a frenzy, while its deeply heartfelt moments like ‘Lost A Friend’ and ‘All I Want’ are destined to deliver beautiful intimacy even as they now set their sights on their largest headline crowds yet. 

Corella have ignited a following which has led to numerous capacity headline tours across the UK and Europe, main stage performances at festivals including Reading & Leeds, while also touring with the likes of Pale Waves, Circa Waves, The Wombats, and most recently Kaiser Chiefs in March. 

They are thrumming with firecracker energy and an even more potent collective with the arrival of their second album A Beautiful World To Lose.

Description

Newcastle University Students' Union stands as a prominent cultural and social anchor within the city, extending its influence far beyond the student body it primarily serves. As a Grade II listed building, its architectural presence, a blend of neo-Jacobean grandeur and modernist extension, contributes significantly to the urban fabric of Newcastle upon Tyne. This independent charity operates as a dynamic hub, facilitating a broad spectrum of activities that engage both the university community and wider public audiences.

Within its walls, a distinct atmosphere prevails, where the scent of freshly brewed coffee from its cafes mingles with the subtle aroma of aged timber in the older sections of the building. The lighting shifts from the bright, functional spaces of its advice centres to the more ambient, adaptable illumination of its performance areas, creating varied environments for study, socialising, and entertainment. This thoughtful design ensures comfort and utility across its diverse offerings.

Practical amenities are well-integrated, including Luther's, the established student bar, alongside various food outlets providing convenient sustenance. The building also features dedicated spaces for student support and administrative functions. Its central location on King's Road ensures ease of access, making it a readily available resource for a wide demographic.

Throughout the year, the Union hosts an extensive programme of events. These range from significant live music performances and club nights in its dedicated venue, to a multitude of society gatherings, volunteering initiatives, and welcome events for new arrivals. It consistently delivers a varied calendar, cementing its reputation as a key destination for cultural engagement and community activity.
