Melbourne's getting another alcohol-fuelled brunch, and this one has a dress code — of leotards, lycra, spandex, leg warmers, and anything glittery, sparkly, shiny and neon. While you're channelling a thoroughly 80s vibe, teased hair won't go astray. Perhaps it'll even make you more aerodynamic on the roller rink.
On Saturday, August 24, it's time to dress up in all of the above and strap on a pair of roller skates. You can't dance around a Roller Disco Brunch without them. The rink will pop up at Seaworks in Williamstown, running in conjunction with the 1.5-kilometre Pac-Man-inspired maze — so you can do both in one day if you do choose.
When you're not busting out your smooth retro moves to plenty of the era's hits — yes, Cyndi Lauper songs will be given a spin by the DJ — you'll be tucking into bottomless mimosas and pizza slices. There will be three 90-minute brunch sessions: at 11am, 1pm and 3pm. These will set you back $75.23 and include your food, booze and skate hire.
If you just want to get your skate on, there'll be four more sessions on the Saturday — at 5pm, 6.30pm, 8pm and 9.30pm — as well as three on the Friday night. These just include a turn on the skates and are $39.55 each.
Peachy keen, jelly bean? You can buy tickets now.
UPDATE: MAY 28, 2019 — This article previously stated that the Roller Disco Brunch would be held on June 29, 2019. This has now been changed to August 31, and the above has been edited to reflect the new date.
