THE THEME
After we launched for Millennials, Gen X blowing up our comments saying they want to party too…so we started one just for them.
The "Lost Generation" is a new 80s-centric dance concept by Matinee Social Club, focused on celebrating the sounds of Gen X – almost exclusively 80s with a splash of late 70s and early 90s sprinkled in..

Yes, pizza is included with your ticket for all events unless specified otherwise on the event ticketing page. It is typically cheese pizza although sometimes we mix it up.
-
If someone is under 30 years old, will they still be able to get in?
Yes, someone under 30 can still get in as long as they’re 21 or older. We started as a brand for Millennials, which would include upper 20s as well, but as we’ve grown we started saying 30+ to be more inclusive. If Gen Z starts flocking to the events, we may have to start enforcing, but to date it hasn’t been a problem.
