- Location / Newcastle, England
- Venue / Metro Radio Arena
The first show by the band in this city since February 2003 on the X/Ten tour.
The second time at this venue.
The venue is located next to the River Tyne (north side). Also not far from the 02 Academy venue and Newcastle football club's St. James' Park stadium.
It was opened in November 1995 as Newcastle Arena.
From 1997 to 2004 it was known as Telewest Arena.
From 2004 to 2019 it was known as Metro Radio Arena before becoming Utilita Arena Newcastle.
The setlist was changed back to the one from two shows ago in Belfast.
A decent quality audience recording exists from this show.
