BACK TO THE ‘50s

Experience the spectacle of rock’n’roll dancing and a fashion parade of only the best ‘50s inspired frocks.
Marvel at vintage cars and bikes from around the world displayed around the museum. Challenge your friends to a game of Bocce or relax in the museum café with ‘50s inspired food and drink.
Finish off the night with a performance from Pat Capocci, one of Australia’s most respected practitioners of Rockabilly.
Pat will bring his internationally popular blend of western swing, jazz, country and blues to the museum for his only Newcastle show this year.
So frock up and rock up for a unique night of vintage fun at the museum after hours on November 25, from 5pm.
