Christmas Time Machine - 80s vs 90s Live
From Take On Me to Wannabe, Livin’ on a Prayer to Freed From Desire, expect a proper sing-out-loud, hands-in-the-air Christmas night from start to finish.
This night is all about the songs that live rent-free in your head.
The ones that come on and instantly turn into a group performance. The ones where someone always shouts, “Oh my God, I love this one!”
Our live 80s vs 90s show with Elite Party Band brings the biggest anthems from both decades straight to the dancefloor – no fillers, no slow build-up, just hit after hit after hit.
It’s colourful. It’s chaotic in the best way. And it’s exactly how a Christmas party should feel.
Whether you were a shoulder-pads and synths person… or you grew up on dance anthems, boybands and girl power… this night lets you have both.
No choosing sides. Just choose the next song to scream along to.
Fancy Dress – Live Battle, Bigger Looks
This one deserves extra effort. Go full arena-ready with statement outfits that match the energy of a live show – big hair, sequins, power jackets and neon for the 80s… or street-style cool, sportswear and pop-idol looks for the 90s. Whether you’re Team Retro Glam or Team Pop Culture, this is your chance to turn the dancefloor into a full-blown decade runway.
