Newcastle United's historic cup win will be celebrated at an open-air event in the city centre.

Full details are yet to be announced, but it will be set around a large main stage on the Town Moor, adjacent to the Great North Road.

There will be a live band, special guests, "Road to Wembley'" highlights, and a screening of the full cup final.

Eddie Howe and the team will then lift the Carabao Cup on stage - presenting the club's first domestic trophy for 70 years to the city.

Celebrations will close with a spectacular show from club partner Sela and further event details will be published ahead of the show.

Season ticket holders have been invited to register interest for tickets to the event on 29 March in advance, and even before bookings opened there were hundreds already in the online queue.
