80s Weekender
The Decade of Big Hair and Bigger Hits
DETAILS COMING SOON!
For one feel-good weekend, we’re turning up the volume, embracing the neon and bringing the sights and sounds of the 1980s to life across the Worth Valley. From iconic hits and throwback vibes to colourful styles and retro touches, every corner of the railway will be packed with the spirit of the era.
Whether you remember the 80s the first time round or simply love the music, fashion and energy, this is your chance to relive (or discover) one of the most unforgettable decades. Expect a lively mix of nostalgia, entertainment and plenty of retro fun for all ages — all set against the backdrop of a heritage railway journey through Brontë Country.
So grab your leg warmers, dust off the denim and join us for a weekend that’s pure 80s from start to finish.
