The Dark Eighties: Cult 80s Hits Party

We'll be playing your favourite (and some more obscure) DARK 1980s anthems until late.

Our last parties at Moon were very busy, so make sure you get your tickets in advance!

You'll hear: EBM I GOTH I POST PUNK I NEW ROMANTICS I ITALO DISCO I SYNTH POP IINDUSTRIAL I DARK WAVE I MINIMAL WAVE I CULT 80S HITS I DEATHROCK + MORE.

The Dark Eighties is a cult 80s hits dance party at the beloved venue, Moon in Wellington - the party will be happening monthly as of March 2021.

Our history: We originated in Vancouver in Canada many years ago. In the last couple of years we've thrown fantastic parties in NYC, London, Toronto, Montreal, Wellington and Auckland! We've even started a Twitch account for online DJ sets at www.twitch.tv/thedarkeighties where you can check what we're all about.

How shall I dress on a night like this?

We strongly encourage wild outfits, costumes, leather, vinyl, lace, masks, wigs, giant hats, overly hairsprayed 80s hair, fishnets, Bowie/Specimen/Klaus Nomi/Steve Strange/Siouxsie channeling face makeup/face paint and the weird like to make this an extra *special* night! But we also want you to feel (somewhat) comfortable, so dress however you want

Pub/speaking level music 'til 8pm - 10:30ish, dancing level volume starts 10:30pm/11pm + goes to the end of the night. $15 at the door, less in advance! Let's go wild, in Dark Eighties style. See you Saturday, March 13th 2021 at Moon!!!
