Ultimate Power

Overview

Don't think about it too much. Hold your air guitar with pride and belt out 'Livin' on a Prayer' like you were born in the 80s. This power ballad party is throwing it back to cocktails at noon, boxy pinstripe suits and cans of hairspray longer than your forearm. There'll be epic singalongs to Toto's 'Africa', Journey's 'Don't Stop Belivin'' and Whitney Houston's 'I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me)'. Don't cringe — it'll be fun.

The December 21 party takes place at the Metro, where the space will be filled with closeted Aerosmith fans and out-and-proud Queen tragics. Expect emotions to run as high as Houston's top notes — and Bon Jovi's best to be blasted maximum volume.

Ultimate Power is a UK/Ireland export and the nostalgic night has been rocking rooms since 2006. They've even wooed Glastonbury's crowds, so you're in for a festival-tested treat.
