Guaranteed to get the party started, organisers of Jack Up The 80s have announced that global hit makers The Cheeky Girls will appear at their Smallbrook Stadium event this August.
There’s an opportunity to get a selfie with 2 of the most recognisable girls in Europe when Romanian-born pop duo and twin sisters Gabriela and Monica Irimia take part in a meet and greet and perform a couple of songs at the event’s brand new opening party night on Friday 11th August.
The Cheeky Girls rose to fame following an appearance on Popstars: The Rivals, leading to the release of the smash-hit, Cheeky Song (Touch My Bum), which has sold more than 1.2 million copies worldwide.
Friday night’s disco party will be headlined by Number One ABBA tribute band Abba Chique and features a DJ set from Wave 105’s Steve Power. Gates open from 19:00 until late.
Jack Up The 80s is a 2-day retro pop festival in its fifth year and provides a family weekend of musical entertainment from household chart names, food, attractions, kids arts and crafts and stalls.
The line-up for the main weekend includes Aussie heart-throb Jason Donovan, Soul sensation Alexander O’Neal, super talented singer songwriter Nik Kershaw as well as 1981 Eurovision winners Bucks Fizz, Right Said Fred, From The Jam and The Real Thing along with special guests from the noughties, S Club.
This year the event will be at its new easy-to-get-to location, Smallbrook Stadium in Ryde. Shuttle buses will be provided from Ryde Esplanade and there will be a designated taxi depot on site.
