TEDx Cooks Hill


TEDxCooksHill is Newcastle's premier stage for bold ideas and inspiring stories. Held at the vibrant Newcastle Conservatorium of Music, this event brings together trailblazers, creatives, and visionaries to spark change through talks that challenge perspectives.

More than just a platform, TEDxCooksHill acts as a catalyst and conduit for the global spread of good ideas, innovation, and creativity. It fosters a space where local and global communities can come together to share knowledge and inspire action. The event promotes discussions on cultural, political, economic, moral, and philosophical concepts, driving innovation and meaningful debate.

As Newcastle's only TEDx event, it captures the city's entrepreneurial spirit and creative energy. TEDxCooksHill builds a global network of thinkers, igniting connections and fueling cultural growth. With limited tickets, this unforgettable experience immerses audiences in a world of ideas that extend far beyond the stage.
