The inaugural event has been organised to raise money for four charities, including Oxfam and the local Butterwick Hospice.
Speaking about the event, organiser Gareth Owen said that a buzz was already growing amongst students in the city.
“It’s incredible; the event has got a real end of term party feel to it,” Owen said.
“We haven’t even put up any posters yet, but there seems to be a real desire for something like this in the North East.”
As well as live acts, the festival will feature street performers, book readings, storytellers, jugglers, stand-up comedy, dance workshops and a selection of international cuisine.
A limited number of early bird tickets are available for £25.
