THE THEME

After we launched for Millennials, Gen X started blowing up our comments saying they want to party too…so we started a night just for them.

The "Lost Generation" is an 80s-centric dance concept by Matinee Social Club, focused on celebrating the sounds of Gen X – with mostly 80s music alongside a splash of late 70s and early 90s sprinkled in.
