The date for a video game market in Northumberland has been announced.

Hexham Mart will host the first-ever North East Video Game Market on September 3 in the Tynedale farmer function suite.

The event will allow game enthusiasts to gather and look around vintage games up for sale from up to 20 market stalls inside the venue.

It will start at 10am with an entry fee of £3.

"We are really excited to see how well this event goes," said organiser Kirk Brunton, from Corbridge.

"The event has been talked about for weeks since we first put up flyers and have seen it talked about all across social media and even in a Nintendo magazine.

"I and others will have plenty of old and second-hand games to sell which I am sure fans will love to see.

"If it goes well then we may plan more."
