Step back into the neon-lit world of the 1980s as Tru 80s deliver an authentic celebration of the decade's most innovative electronic and new wave sounds at The Arena on Friday 29 August.

From the synthesized perfection of Depeche Mode and New Order to the new wave energy of Duran Duran and The Human League, expect faithful renditions of the songs that defined an era.

"Blue Monday," "Don't You Want Me" "Tainted Love," "Don't You (Forget About Me)," and "Sweet Dreams." every track performed with the electronic precision and infectious energy that made these songs timeless.

Tru 80s understand that 80s electronic music wasn't just about the technology, it was about using new sounds to create genuine emotion and dancefloor magic.

This is music that pushed boundaries and created new possibilities, blending traditional songwriting with emerging electronic instruments to create something entirely fresh.

This event starts at 7.30pm. For tickets click HERE.
