Newcastle upon Tyne East was a constituency[n 1] of the House of Commons of the UK Parliament. It was held by Nick Brown, an independent formerly of the Labour Party, from its recreation in 2010 until its abolition for the 2024 general election.[n 2]

Under the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, Jesmond was transferred to Newcastle upon Tyne North, with the rest of the seat being absorbed once again into the re-established constituency of Newcastle upon Tyne East and Wallsend.[2]
