So80s
About this event
Prepare to step back in time at St James' STACK with So80s Live, the ultimate celebration of the decade that fashion and music forgot—or rather, we all wish we could forget in the best way possible! DJ Murray Mint and his costumed dancers will transport you straight to the 1980s with iconic hits from Rick Astley, Madonna, Bon Jovi, Whitney Houston and Bananarama, all delivered with endless energy, dance routines and interactive fun. With a Knight Rider-themed DJ console, glowing Rubik's cube installations and a full theatrical stage set, this isn't just a night out—it's a fully immersive throwback experience.
Whether you're hunting for that perfect rah rah skirt, teasing your hair to new heights or simply ready to relive the greatest decade in music, So80s Live delivers non-stop entertainment for all ages. Watch as the dancers transform into Michael Jackson's zombies for Thriller and cheerleaders for Toni Basil's Mickey, all whilst enjoying stage games, giveaways and the chance to get up close and dance along. It's a cavalcade of 80s brilliance from start to finish.
Head to St James' STACK on Gallowgate in Newcastle Upon Tyne for a night of pure retro nostalgia set against the backdrop of a vibrant food, drink and entertainment hub.
