Cofton's 80s Takeover
Step back in time to the decade of big shoulder pads, big hair and even bigger tunes!
Join us for a neon filled, nostalgia fuelled takeover as we hit you with those laser beams and play the greatest pop anthems ever made. Dust off those shoulder pads, squeeze into some leg warmers, and prepare to dance like it’s 1985. With live tribute acts, retro tunes, and plenty of singalongs, it’s the ultimate throwback party.
