Tinsel Time Tunnel - 80s vs 90s DJ Battle

Two DJs go head-to-head on the dancefloor, pitting 80s pop, synth, and rock anthems against 90s boy bands, girl power classics, and dance hits. Guests enjoy non-stop singalongs alongside a festive three-course meal. Attendees are invited to pick a side by dressing in retro 80s neon and leather or 90s double denim and bucket hats.
