Break out the neon, dust off your leg warmers, and tease up your hair—because this spring, Potters Resorts presents the most righteous 80s celebration yet!
The 1980s was the decade that defined cool—on the dancefloor, in fashion, and in music. It was a time when synthesisers ruled the airwaves, nightclubs pulsed with funky beats, and the world was awash with bright, audacious colours.

You may fondly recall blasting mixtapes on your Walkman and practising your moonwalk in the mirror, and we’re getting ready to write a love letter to everything that made the 80s so memorable.
Your Ultimate Retro Playlist
At the heart of our celebrations is Totally 80s; an electrifying full production from the Potters Theatre Company. We’ll take you back to the decade of big beats, big hair, and even bigger dreams, following the success of this hugely popular module from 2024.
With dazzling neon lights, iconic hits, and choreography that’s, like, totally awesome, this is one throwback you don’t want to miss.

The B-52s, Prince, Eurythmics, Wham!, Spandau Ballet, Whitney Houston, Erasure, Madonna, Cyndi Lauper, and many more 80s legends will receive that unique PTC treatment.
And of course, no tribute to the decade would be complete without tipping our hats to the King of Pop, Michael Jackson. Totally 80s delivers the goods with show-stopping performances of Beat It, Bad, Black or White, and the timeless Man in the Mirror.
With a setlist of close to 40 songs, this is a true musical journey with certified classics guaranteed to have you singing along and dancing in your seat.

This isn’t just any show; it’s an experience. Combining live performances with dazzling visuals, heart-pumping choreography, and an atmosphere that’s dripping with good vibes, Totally 80s will transport you back to a time when everything felt possible, and the music was larger than life.
Potters Theatre Company’s Totally 80s show will feature on 3-Night Weekend & 4-Night Midweek Breaks this spring and beyond, opening on Tuesday, 11th February at Hopton-on-Sea, and Saturday, 8th March at Five Lakes.
Making a day of it
The 80s wasn’t just about the music; it was about the memories. With no internet, life felt more personal. Friends and family gathered face-to-face over coffee, queued to watch the latest movie, danced the night away, or took in a whole night of Saturday night TV.
Individuality was celebrated, mixtapes for friends or crushes became an art form, and without smartphones or digital distractions, life had a carefree, unplugged quality.
With so many of those memories engrained in us, we’ll be adding more and more 80s touches as the season goes on, with your days taking on a nostalgic twist.

As part of your pre-show entertainment, relive the excitement of a classic 80s TV show before the Potters Theatre Company performs Totally 80s. Think quick-fire questions, cheesy buzzers, and a whole lot of laughs, ready to warm you up for an unforgettable evening.
And with daytime quizzes, activities and even tasty classics from the decade in our restaurants on their way, this celebration of the 80s is far from just a night-time thing!
