ABSOLUTELY 80'S

Feat. Brian Mannix, Scott Carne, Dale Ryder and others. 
Absolutely 80's Melbourne Sydney
Take a trip back to the 80s.

An era of frizzy perms and shoulder pads, tax deductible lunches, CDs and music that shaped a generation.

The Absolutely 80s show features much loved Aussie pop icons performing their massive hits from the 80s and creating hours of epic flashbacks.

The Absolutely 80s show doesn’t just focus on the hits of their main singers, but mixes it up with a wide range of famous songs from the 80s. This approach – along with the outstanding showmanship of its all-star lineup, makes for an all–round, broader entertainment appeal.

In the 80s, each of the individual acts sold hundreds of thousands of records, both Australia wide and internationally.
