Pokey's Tribute Disco

About this event

Step back onto the dancefloor and relive the magic of one of Melbourne’s most beloved disco nights.

Inspired by the legendary Pokey’s Disco that lit up the 70s, 80s and early 90s, this special celebration brings the spirit of that era back for one unforgettable evening. Expect classic disco anthems, pop favourites, and the joyful, community-centred energy that made those nights so special.

This tribute event has been created with deep respect for the history and the people who made it shine. We honour the legacy of Pokey’s and those who danced, connected, and found community under the mirror ball.

With thanks to Doug Lucas for his support.

So dust off your dancing shoes, sequins encouraged. This event is brought to you by Lifeview and Victorian Pride Centre as part of the Plus 55 Social Club program.
