About This 80s Hen Party Dance Class in Nottingham

Rock City flung open its doors on Talbot Street back in December 1980, and Nottingham has been a serious live-music town ever since — which makes it fitting turf for an 80s dance hen party Nottingham crews can really let rip on. Your choreographer turns up with one big medley cut from the decade's shout-it-back singles — Come On Eileen, Tainted Love, Uptown Girl, Don't You Want Me — and hands it over in bite-sized runs, so the moves land before the nerves get a say.

By the second time through, the friend who insisted she'd only be filming from a chair has drifted into the front line without noticing. The hour is pitched at outright beginners — a room whose last routine was a school disco decades back — and every formation is angled to flatter the whole group through a phone. Go full neon and legwarmers or dance it in leggings; on camera the routine looks the same either way.

When the number's crisp we film it, so an 80s dance hen do Nottingham can wander round to the Lace Market cocktail bars with its keepsake already saved. The money asks nothing clever of you either: a flat £140 for the hour or £165 for ninety minutes, billed to the whole group and never a head, so the bigger the party the less it comes to each. Borrow one of our studios and that hire is the only thing ever added.

What's Included in Your 80s Hen Party

  • A choreographer leading the full hour on the floor with you — setting the counts, catching the wobbles, keeping it all moving
  • An 80s medley weighted toward the singles the bride would happily lose an argument over
  • A loosen-off first and a wind-down last, all fitted inside the minutes you've paid for
  • Every bit of sound kit hauled in and switched on by us, soundtrack included — you turn up carrying nothing
  • A tempo judged for a room that got rusty somewhere around the last millennium
  • Pauses for photos timed to the second the outfits look their loudest on screen
  • One flat figure whatever the final headcount — a dozen hens or thirty, it stands still
  • A room in the Lace Market or over in Sneinton reserved for you, or the whole class brought to your door anywhere in Nottinghamshire
  • The final run captured on video and yours to keep by the time the taxis pull up

What You'll Experience at Our 80s Dance Class

  • The big shoulder-pad power poses and clean arm angles the decade practically trademarked
  • A warm-up ridden on the kind of drum-machine intro that means business
  • Formations that stack a huddle of mates into something like a Top of the Pops line-up
  • The choreography built up section by section, steady enough that nobody gets stranded mid-song
  • A closing sequence engineered to reappear, uninvited, at the actual wedding
  • Somewhere north of a hundred openings to sing it wrong and mean every word

Perfect For Your Nottingham Hen Do

  • Brides who'd still take a Rock City club night over anything trendier
  • Groups lining the class up before an evening that rolls from the Lace Market into Hockley
  • Hens who got the neon and sweatband order in a good month early
  • Mixed-age crowds where the mother of the bride quietly knows every word
  • Parties set up in a West Bridgford or Beeston Airbnb who'd like the class brought to the door
  • Anyone after the one neon-lit photo that ends up plastered all over the wedding

What Our Hens Say

80s hen parties we have taught across Nottingham.

"A dozen of us decked head to foot in neon, learning Come On Eileen in a room off the Lace Market before pouring into the bars next door. The bride went to rewatch it and couldn't speak for laughing."

— Gemma W. ★★★★★
80s

"Booked the come-to-you for a weekend at a place in Beeston. The instructor rearranged our living room, planted the aunties at the front, and by the last chorus they had completely taken the thing over."

— Priya S. ★★★★★

"I dance like a deckchair and somehow held my own. My housemate is threatening to ban me from the kitchen until I stop rehearsing the arm bits by the kettle."

— Nat B. ★★★★★

"Best value of the whole do, no contest — and that video has done more laps of the group chat than I can count. It even earned an encore at the actual wedding."

— Kirsty M. ★★★★★

80s Hen Party FAQ

Everything you need to know about our 80s hen party dance class in Nottingham.

Can we build the class into a night out afterwards? +

It's how most Nottingham hens run the day — dance in the afternoon, back to the hotel to change, then out for cocktails in the Lace Market and on into Hockley and Broad Street. The Cornerhouse across from the Theatre Royal makes an easy first round. Tell us your evening plan and the studio time slots in neatly ahead of it.

What 80s songs will we dance to at the hen party in Nottingham? +

The opening four are usually Come On Eileen, Tainted Love, Uptown Girl and Don't You Want Me, though nothing's locked — the set tilts to suit the room. Name the one song the bride won't do without and we build a stretch of the routine around it.

How much does an 80s hen party in Nottingham cost? +

It's a flat team rate rather than a per-person ticket: an hour is £140, ninety minutes £165, and that covers everyone who walks through the door. The one possible add-on is hiring a studio of ours. Split across twenty hens it barely registers — which is exactly where the by-the-head firms quietly get dear.

Do we need to sort the fancy dress ourselves? +

The outfits are your department — shoulder pads, scrunchies, neon bright enough to read from Slab Square. Ours is the routine, the music and the sound rig. Not fussed about dressing up? Leggings and flat trainers carry the whole thing just as well.

Where does the class run, and is driving in a nightmare? +

The studios are dotted around the Lace Market and Hockley, with the exact door confirmed when you book. Nottingham comes off the M1 easily around junctions 24 to 26, and there are multi-storeys at Trinity Square and the Cornerhouse — but the middle of town is small and level, so most hens park at a tram park-and-ride and ride the NET straight in from Station Street.

Can you come out to us across Nottinghamshire? +

Of course. Your instructor loads up the sound kit and runs the full session at your place instead — right across Greater Nottingham to Arnold, Hucknall and Bulwell, and out into the county to Mansfield, Newark and the Sherwood villages around Edwinstowe. Clear a bit of living-room space and that's your stage.
