Newcastle, the center of this conurbation, is the second most populous city in New South Wales and has a rich history as one of Australia's oldest cities. Originally established as a coal port, the city has evolved from its industrial heritage to become a vibrant cultural center. The area is known for its beautiful beaches, historical architecture, and strong arts scene. Newcastle Art Gallery, established in 1957, is one of the oldest and largest regional galleries in Australia.

Maitland, the other major component of this metropolitan area, brings its own historical significance with well-preserved colonial architecture and cultural heritage. The region has played an important role in Australian industrial history, particularly in coal mining and steel production, which is reflected in its cultural institutions and heritage sites. Today, the area maintains a dynamic balance between its historical industrial character and contemporary cultural development.
