Cruel Summer 80s Dance Party

Brooklyn Based and the skint present: Cruel Summer 80s Dance Party

The Cure, The Go-Gos, MJ, Sheila E., Prince and Run-D.M.C.–these guys filled the 80s with ridiculously fun music, and on Friday, August 10 we’re going to dance our asses off to all of them and more!

 

Find out what's happening in Park Slopewith free, real-time updates from Patch.

Come early to get your New Wave fix with DJ B-Movie, stick around for live 80s band The Engagements covering all the classics, followed by a late night set of funky dance and freestyle hits by Party Like it’s 1999's Steve Reynolds. (Tell us if there’s a song you’ve GOT to hear, we’ll pass it on!)

All night long The Bell House will be serving special $6 cocktails that just happen to be named after things that *might* remind you of the night’s theme: the Rum DMC, the Bananarama, and The Miami Vice, plus the trashiest snack ever, Doritos and nacho cheese (it’s like we’re making the midnight 7-11 run for you!)

 

Rock your favorite 80s look (neon? crop tops? checkered Vans?) and you could win free tickets to any Bell House show of your choice and a John Hughes DVD set.

 

Tickets are $10 at the door or just $5 in advance using the code 1980.
