On Friday 22nd June 2018 the exhibition programme and venues along the walking trails will open to visitors for the first time under the headline theme 'Get North'. Between noon-2pm (specific timing tbc) a 1-2 minute burst of colourful daytime pyrotechnics will be launched from a working boat on the River Tyne signalling the opening of the exhibition at a single moment. From approximately 6pm, a second 1-2 minute burst of daytime pyrotechnics, also from a working boat on the river, will announce the start of the evening event.
