A black-tie fundraiser for digital inclusion

One night for a fairer digital future.

The Newcastle Digital Charity Ball brings the North East's digital and technology community together to create opportunity, connection and lasting local impact.

23 September 2027

Venue to be announced

Why it matters

Digital inclusion changes what is possible.

Digital poverty can leave people without the equipment, connectivity and skills needed to take part in everyday life. We are bringing our region together to help change that, so more people across the North East can access opportunity, support and confidence in a digital world.
