About this event

Back to the 80s is the ultimate retro party night of the decade's greatest dance classics and power ballads, rearranged for a full symphony orchestra. Don't miss this power-packed evening with the Auckland Phil and our incredible guest vocalists performing the music of some of the 80s most iconic stars. Featured hits include Madonna's 'Material Girl', Huey Lewis's 'The Power of Love', Cyndi Lauper's 'Time After Time', Robert Palmer's 'Addicted to Love' and much more, orchestrated by Grammy© winner Jeff Tyzik.
