The fantastic Hula-Hoop-fuelled rockabilly-beach party crew - Rock A Hula team up with vintage night Hellzapoppin' for a sandy avalanche of bands, DJs, Cabaret, Hula Hoop lessons and so, so much more!

Wowwie! What an evening! Yes, two of the biggest alternative, vintage club nights, Rock A Hula and Hellzapoppin' team up for a veritable vintage Christmas shindig. Covering the 1930s to the 1950s, this party will take you on a tour through all things vintage cool. With a sensory overload of live bands, burlesque, DJs, Hula Hoop lessons, a Hawaiian photo booth and films in the cinema.

Channelling the 1930s are rakish misfits Top Shelf Jazz. Representing the dance halls of the 1940s and 50s are The Twilighters - a hot off the record-press jump blues 4-piece formation made up of some of the most experienced musicians in the vintage scene, including the infamous Shugapush DJ: Kid Krupa on vocals. The Surfin Gorillas take us from the '50s and into the 60s with their unique mix of garage, rock n roll and surf instrumentals - think retro-futuristic. Tearing up the decks are two of vintage London's biggest names - DJ El Nino and Lady Kamikaze. Plus, Mr Hellzapoppin' himself - Tim's Jumpin' Jive. Back by popular demand, is Rock a Hula's Chief Hooping Officer - Miss Constance Irkles showing off her skills in a special hula hooping cabaret performance. Amazing, amazing, amazing!
