80s Forever - the eighties party for advanced fans
Since 2007, 80s Forever has been creating nostalgic feelings through sound and vision with pop, new wave, new romantic, rock and Neue Deutsche Welle. After its beginnings at Härterei and BBQ, its move to Flamingo and its time as a travelling disco, 80s Forever found a home in January 2010 at the beautiful Papiersaal in Sihlcity. It quickly became clear what a stroke of luck this was. On the first Saturday of every month, around 500 dance enthusiasts float through the 80s heaven there.
Not always the same hits
Musically, 80s Forever is a refreshing change from other 80s parties. While others always play the same sing-along anthems, DJs Pete G, DZ and P@man go one step further: alongside the classics, they play many nearly forgotten tracks as well as songs waiting to be discovered or rediscovered. You can also dance to songs by well-known artists that you unfortunately rarely hear elsewhere. After all, A-ha had more to offer in the 80s than just «Take On Me», Madonna more than just «Like a Prayer» and Prince more than just «Kiss»

Every song as a music video
The presentation of the songs is unusual, too. Every track is shown as a music video, both in sound and vision. Naturally, everything is projected onto a big screen, so you can really feel immersed and experience all the beautiful and frightening sides of the 80s up close. DJ Pete G painstakingly collected more than 2,500 music videos, partially resynchronising and re-editing them. This turns the musical 80s into a visual and acoustic feast.
Who comes to party?
Who visits 80s Forever? Everyone who loves the sound of the 80s and is open to rarely or never-played gems. The average age is around 30 to 50. Most visitors experienced the 80s themselves and look forward every month to travelling back to that era through music for one evening. But many guests who just missed that decade also come along, eager to catch up on the great music of the time. And that need is guaranteed to be met.
