Retro's Sixth Birthday Bash

Overview

Sometimes, you just want to forget what year it is. You don't need to remember anything that's happening in your life right now, or any of your worries or deadlines, or whatever you have to do tomorrow or next month. Instead, you just want to listen to old-school tunes and feel like you've stepped back a couple of decades — or more. Yes, they're the nights that Retro's probably calls your name.

The Fortitude Valley spot has been celebrating nostalgic bangers for six years now, so we're guessing you've probably popped by for some 80s, 90s and 00s tunes and a fishbowl cocktail at some point. It'll keep going on in the same way, of course, but the venue is also throwing a big birthday party to mark its new milestone.

Head by on Friday, July 23 or Saturday, July 24 to wish Retro's many happy returns, sip cocktails and enjoy all those suitably retro tracks. The fishbowls will be birthday-themed, and there'll be a photo booth as well, so you can take a memento home. Finding something that's been in your wardrobe for a decade or so to wear is completely acceptable, too.
