Jack Up Summer Party, the Island’s retro-themed boutique gathering, returns to Retro Staycations in Ryde over the weekend of 12th – 13th August with a fantastic line-up featuring a number of top tribute acts.
Billed a ‘family-friendly celebration of popular party hits,’ this year’s line-up features a fantastic mix of some of the world’s best tribute acts from the 80s and 90s alongside performances from original artists including The Zoots ‘Sounds of the 80s’ show, Black Lace and Island favourites, Ska’d for Life.
Greatest hits from the era will feature as Jack Up Events transport you back to the golden age of pop with the likes of Duran Duran, Robbie Williams, Kylie Minogue, Whitney Houston, Tom Jones, Elton John and Madness tributes.
Black Lace, the British pop band who rose to fame in the 80s with hits like ‘Agadoo’ and ‘Do the Conga,’ will also be taking to the stage for a special performance. With their catchy tunes and fun-loving attitude, the novelty party duo are sure to get the party started.
Event Organiser Sarah Moss has said:
“Our aim has always been to deliver affordable high-quality, locally-accessible cultural entertainment to ‘bring back the good times’ whilst supporting Island charities and traders. 2023 marks the 10th anniversary of Jack Up Events, so get ready to celebrate hit after hit with us this Summer!”
