David Bowie Celebration

Overview

In the words of the great man himself, let's dance in AC/DC Lane on Sunday, March 10. Bowie fans — aka Melbourne's real cool cats — will want to flock to the latest tribute evening dedicated to the man that music, and the world in general, won't ever forget.

Taking place from 11pm, Cherry Bar's David Bowie Celebration is exactly what it sounds like, all on the night before Melbourne's next holiday — and the venue's last before it closes its doors. If you want to get decked out as your favourite version of the all-round icon or slap on some lightning face paint, you'll get in for free. If costumes aren't your style but Ziggy Stardust, Thin White Duke, Major Tom and Aladdin Sane definitely is, head along for tunes, dancing, and a night of adoration and admiration.

There'll be all of the tracks you've always dreamed of, with plenty to choose from — Bowie made 25 albums over five decades, after all. It's bound to be an emotional ride through the career of a creative genius, and if you need some liquid support, espresso martinis will be $10 all evening. Entry is $10 as well for those who haven't gone the dress-up route.
