80’s Disco Club Tropicana

21st February 2026
Tom Thumb Theatre

Step into the ultimate 80s time machine as DJ DOC spins the decade's greatest hits non-stop at the Tom Thumb Theatre in Margate

7.30pm - midnight

From Wham!'s feel-good anthems and Madonna's dancefloor fillers to Prince's funky grooves and Michael Jackson's legendary beats - plus Duran Duran, Bon Jovi, Cyndi Lauper, and so much more. Whether you lived through the 80s or discovered them through Netflix, prepare for a night of pure nostalgia and non-stop dancing!

 7.30pm - 9pm Roller Skate Yard - Glide around like you're in an 80s music video! Bring your skates! Or borrow some (*Only with available sizes and at your own risk. (Don’t drink and skate! You’ve been warned.) Channel your inner skating rink queen or king and show off those moves on wheels. Feel the wind in your teased hair as you groove to the beats!

9.30pm Dirty Dancing Contest - Nobody puts Baby in the corner! Get with a partner and choreograph in advance, or improvise the iconic moves on the night. Show homage to the most romantic dance film of the decade! Whether you've mastered the lift or have something else in mind, "(I've Had) The Time of My Life," this is your moment to shine and make your friends smile. Let us know in advance or as soon as you arrive if you’d like to be included.

Retro Games - Take a break from the dancefloor and challenge your mates to classic 80s games.

Classic 80s Shots & Cocktails - Sip on period-perfect drinks that'll transport you straight back to 1985. Think bright colours, questionable combinations, and all the fun without the hangover regrets (well, we can't promise that bit). Our bar team has crafted a menu of throwback tipples guaranteed to fuel your night.

Lino Mat - Breakdance Battle - Think you've got the moves? Hit the lino and show us your best breakdancing, body-popping, and electric boogaloo! Whether you're a seasoned b-boy or just fancy throwing some shapes, the floor is yours. Spectators welcome - cheer on the brave souls busting out their cardboard-era moves!

Dress to impress in your best 80s gear - neon everything, shoulder pads that could take someone's eye out, leg warmers, shell suits, crimped hair, statement jewellery, and don't forget the hairspray!

(Fancy dress not essential, but highly encouraged)
