Celebrate the new year with We Can Be Heroes Disco! We're welcoming 2024 a little bit earlier in the day, with a daytime, all-ages disco and live gig on New Year's Eve. We'll ring in the new year (it'll be midnight somewhere!) with our signature mix of 80s and 90s rock, pop, indie, hip-hop and soundtracks, from 1pm to 5pm.
Plus live music from both Dom Green's Hootenanny and Roadie (formerly known as The Outback), giveaways, discounted pizza from Yard Sale Pizza, and the cheapest bar in E17. And all children will get a free glow stick on entry, to wave in the air like they just don't care. Because baby, you're a firework.
We Can Be Heroes is an all-ages disco and live event for everyone. What started as a celebration of all things geeky has evolved into a mini-festival in an afternoon for grown-ups and kids.
The music is a mix of blockbuster soundtracks and 80s pop, upbeat indie and big, silly rock. Think John Hughes meets John Williams. Expect to hear the Runaways, the Ramones, Weird Al, Weezer, Kiss, AC/DC, Cyndi Lauper, De La Soul, They Might Be Giants, Violent Femmes, Bon Jovi, David Bowie, Madonna, Metallica and more. All played at a child-friendly volume that’s still perfect for dancing.
We run an event that strives to be both safe and inclusive. No adults admitted unless accompanied by a child. Also, please note that there will be live music at this event. Whilst we will make every effort to monitor the sound levels, you may want to consider ear protection for children.
Excelsior!
