Newcastle record shop Beyond Vinyl will close in March 2023.

The shop opened five years ago, and has made its home on 88 Westgate Road in the North East city. Building a loyal customer base, Beyond Vinyl has endured time, tide, and the odd pandemic or two, but it seems that the shop will be forced to close this year.

In a note to customers, Beyond Vinyl confirmed that it will close in March, due to “the current climate”.

Urging local councils to support high street retailers and independent businesses, Beyond Vinyl say: “They are the heart of the local community and make Newcastle the best city in the UK”.

Beyond Vinyl intend to continue trading online, with their website receiving a full overhaul and redesign – get involved.

Beyond Vinyl close by hinting that, if trading conditions were to change, a return to physical premises isn’t being ruled out.
