Where to Watch NRL Games in Newcastle

Last updated September 25, 2026

The NRL finals run through September and finish with the Grand Final at Accor Stadium on the first Sunday in October, with State of Origin owning three Wednesday nights of the winter before that. The crowd is a club crowd outside Origin week, so the pub that matters is the one that puts the right side on with the sound up, and in Auckland that side is the Warriors. These 8 venues in Newcastle carry a real signal that they show the NRL.

Frequently asked questions

Which pub is showing the NRL in Newcastle?
8 venues in Newcastle have a real, checkable signal that they show the NRL: the venue's own post or website, a club or fan-group listing, or local coverage. Every listing on this page links back to that source.
Where can I watch the NRL Grand Final in Newcastle?
The sections on this page split them by what the evidence says: 1 is a fan bar or game-day home for a specific team, which is where the crowd and the sound will be; 3 show the NRL week in, week out; 4 hosted a one-off screening we could verify.
When are the next NRL games?
Next up: NRL 2026 Preliminary Final: Dolphins v Sydney Roosters on Fri 25 Sep 2026, 09:50 UTC; NRL 2026 Preliminary Final: Penrith Panthers v Newcastle Knights on Sun 27 Sep 2026, 06:00 UTC; NRLW 2026 Grand Final on Sun 4 Oct 2026, 05:00 UTC. A lot of these venues show both codes, so every listing below names the NRL, one of its clubs or State of Origin explicitly rather than leaving the word footy to be guessed at.
How is this NRL list for Newcastle put together?
It is built from public evidence only: a venue's own posts and website, club and fan-group listings, and local press. We keep hospitality venues only, drop anything we cannot source, and refresh the Newcastle list as new evidence appears.
