Big stars and clothes channeling 80s spirit

The event, from 4pm on Sunday, October 4 is part of rugby’s biggest year for Milton Keynes’ involvement in the Festival of Rugby 2015.

Briony Fox, head of community engagement at The Parks Trust and Festival lead co-ordinator said: “We want people to relive the 80s, think big hair and shoulder pads.

“Dance the night away to some of your favourite 80s acts, in the beautiful setting of Campbell Park. We have a line-up not to be missed.”

People are encouraged to dress in favourite 80s attire, so bring out the fluorescent gear, big hair and shoulder pads.
