Rainton Arena in Houghton-le-Spring, a short hop from Sunderland and Durham, is a versatile North East venue built for big nights out. The main hall’s flexible footprint handles everything from intimate club shows to full-scale productions, supported by professional sound, intelligent lighting and a high, open ceiling that keeps sightlines clear. Fans appreciate the practical touches too, including on-site parking, straightforward entry and convenient links to the A1(M) and A690. Whether you are chasing a long-awaited reunion tour or discovering your next favourite act, this arena makes getting in and getting close feel easy.
Programming runs wide: chart-topping tribute nights, electronic marathons, touring comedy, rising North East comics, boxing and MMA cards, darts, wrestling, family shows and bustling trade exhibitions. Layouts shift with the bill, moving from standing floor gigs to reserved seating or cabaret-style tables for comedy. Multiple bars and speedy service points help you maximise stage time, and staff can assist with accessible entry and viewing areas when events offer them. Ready to go?
