Music lovers are invited to head down the Altanta Highway for
a night of throwback classic hits as the 80s Live! concert show
comes to Swindon's Meca.

80s! Live will visit the Meca on Saturday, 18 February 2023. 

Doors will open at 6pm, with the show due to start at 6.30pm. Curfew will be at 10pm. 

A spokesperson for the show said: "More than two dozen back-to-back chart toppers from the likes of Wham!, Culture Club, Rick Astley, Madonna, Duran Duran, Soft Cell, A-Ha, Tears for Fears, The Human League and The Weather Girls are crammed into the non-stop evening of live music.

"Backcombed to perfection, The 80s Live! cast revive the fashion and dance moves from the decade that taste forgot. A blitz of dayglo, sequins, corset belts, vinyl, legwarmers, sunglasses, elbow-length gloves, harem pants and bling awaits."

Blending pop and soft rock, the show will feature hit songs from the decade, including Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, Edge of Heaven, Tainted Love, Love Shack, Living on a Prayer, The Final Countdown, Don’t You Want Me Baby, Relax, Never Gonna Give You Up, It’s Raining Men, Rio, and more.

Those interested can book their seats at: www.mecaswindon.co.uk or by calling 01793 251111.
