That's So 2000s Festival

A slick afternoon of nostalgic tunes — with free lollipops and fairy floss, too.

Overview

If you're of an age when you can remember burning your friend's So Fresh CD so you could stay up to date with the coolest songs of the season, congrats. You're old now. But also, congrats, because you will seriously enjoy the That's So 2000s Festival.

The old-school get-together to end all old-school get-togethers is coming to Hermann's Bar from 2pm on Saturday, January 25, and it'll be playing bangers of the 2000s vintage. You can expect a disturbing percentage of Channel 10 alums (Australian Idol winners/losers and ex-Neighbours actors) as well as way too much Nickelback for polite company. Also, just throwing this out there: we're desperately hoping for a timely comeback of the Duff sisters duet 'Our Lips Are Sealed'.

This time around, the retro tunes will come with plenty of party fun, including a ball pit, jumping castle, face painting, and free fairy floss and lollipops.

And, because of the date, there will be a slight diversion from the throwback tunes, with Triple J's Hottest 100 also getting a spin.

Of course, it's obviously 18 and over — because if you're under 18 you definitely don't know what So Fresh is. Or CDs, probably.
