Once in a Lifetime – Visionaries of the 80’s

Get ready to rewind to a time when music wasn't just heard, it was felt. 'Once in a Lifetime – Visionaries of the 80's' is not your average tribute show; it's a meticulously crafted journey back to the heart of the 80s, where groundbreaking artists redefined the soundscape. Forget the shoulder pads and questionable hairstyles. We're talking about the raw talent and undeniable genius of bands and artists like U2, The Police, Tears for Fears, Toto, Prince, Kate Bush, Bruce Springsteen, Hall & Oates, The Smiths, and many more. These weren't just pop stars; they were pioneers, crafting anthems that still resonate today. Featuring an incredible ensemble of world-class musicians who obsessively recreate every note, riff, and vocal nuance, this show brings these iconic tracks to life with breathtaking accuracy and a palpable passion. This is your chance to experience the very best of the 80s – powerful, innovative, and undeniably cool! Don't miss this electrifying celebration of the sounds that shaped a generation. It's more than a concert; it's an experience."Non-stop hits and stunning visuals. If you love the 80's, this is a total must-see" Website | Facebook | Instagram Sunday 4th October, 2026 – 7:30pm This show has been rescheduled from Sun 17 May, 2026 – Thank you to all those of you who have transferred your tickets over!

However, many live acts will encourage the audience to participate with singing, dancing and standing. We have to balance this with those that cannot or prefer not to stand, and all seats from Rows B-K are only for those wishing to remain in their seats. You will need to move to an aisle behind row K to stand or dance, if you book a seat forward of this row. All seating from Row L backwards permits standing/dancing (in both seated areas and the aisles), in most circumstances, for live music shows. Standing at your seat at any show is not a right. We ask audience members to be kind and considerate to those around them at all times, and to follow the instructions of our ushers and security staff. Anyone who refuses to do as we ask, or is rude or obviously intoxicated, will be asked to leave the theatre. No alcohol, drinks or food may be brought into our building; bags may be searched and such items removed and disposed of.  We hope you understand that these rules are to protect your enjoyment of our show, and that of the whole audience, and that you thoroughly enjoy your visit to The Spa.

Venue: Spa Pavilion Theatre, Undercliff Road West, Felixstowe IP11 2DX.
