London's iconic queer '80s night powers into it's 4th year at The Eagle
Just like the classic UK high street poster shop, ATHENA is the go to place for everything about the 80s that is aspiration, glamour, cool, decadence and style. An era of straight-faced chic and power dressed posing, ATHENA celebrates the sounds, images and icons of the decade before irony, when fierce meant fierce and nobody
gave a f**k. Saturday afternoon used to be for flicking through poster images of airbrushed neon dreams - now Saturday night is for hitting the dance floor with your crew, playing it cool and slowly getting drunk under the disco lights. DJS – Paul Joseph (PopHorror, Carpet Burn),
Gareth Hackney (Bar Wotever, Eagle VHS)
