If your idea of a perfect night out involves big hair, bigger synths and a dancefloor full of people who actually know the words to Relax, then clear your diary. Athena’s beloved ‘80s party is back at Eagle London this Saturday, and it’s bringing a full blast of neon-soaked nostalgia with it.
Athena has built a loyal following over the years thanks to its simple formula, brilliant music, and a crowd that’s there for the tunes. Expect wall-to-wall classics from across the decade, from glossy pop and disco to new wave, synth-pop, and Hi-NRG. Think Madonna, Whitney Houston, Pet Shop Boys, New Order, and Grace Jones, plus the kind of deep cuts that make serious ‘80s fans lose their minds on the dancefloor.
The party runs from 9pm until 4am, giving you plenty of time to warm up with friends before diving headfirst into the chaos. Resident DJ Gareth Hackney will be on deck duty alongside guest DJ Dirty Pop, delivering a soundtrack designed for shameless sing-alongs, dramatic dance moves, and at least one moment where everyone points at the ceiling during a power ballad.
Athena also prides itself on being a welcoming space first and foremost. The vibe is friendly, the crowd is mixed, and the only real requirement is a love for the decade that gave us shoulder pads, Walkmans, and an endless supply of iconic pop moments.
Just remember, the dancefloor tends to fill up quickly once the hits start landing.
So dig out the Ray-Bans, tease up that hair, and prepare for a night where the ‘80s never ended.
