Vibe: You know all the words to Toto’s “Africa.” You quote The Breakfast Club even in social situations that generally require business etiquette. You wore throwback high-tops straight through the decade or so it wasn’t cool to wear throwback high-tops. Awesome 80s Prom has been waiting for you and your birthday party, and it’s primed to make your birthday totally rad.

Spot: Located in New York’s legendary LES hotspot Webster Hall, Awesome 80s Prom is a wild night filled with all the high school staples: football jocks, hot cheerleaders, lovable nerds, Asian exchange students, and of course, a competition for Prom King and Prom Queen. Above all, there will be no sneaking around to spike the punch: Drinking heavily is definitely encouraged, and there are no chaperones to say otherwise. Plus, with every admission to Awesome 80s Prom, you get free admission to the 40,000 square feet, 4 floors, and 8 rooms of musical variety that Webster Hall has to offer. It’s a safe bet that Awesome 80s Prom will make your actual high school prom look like amateur hour.

The Deal: Legwarmers, baby-blue tuxedos, tons of female shoulder pads, and large doses of hairspray are just the beginning. As Awesome 80s Prom gets into full swing and the drinks start flowing, your birthday party is turned into a legendary New York City night of vintage debauchery that runs throughout Webster Hall (and god knows where else afterward—we’ll let you figure that out). And if you don’t have any 80s gear, not to worry: You won’t remember what you’re wearing after an hour or so anyway.
