If you think “prom” means awkward photos and lukewarm punch, think again. On August 23, Club Sur transforms into a shimmering, glitter-covered shrine to the 1980s for a night that blends elegance, nostalgia, and unfiltered fun.

From the moment you walk in, you’ll be greeted by the glow of neon lights, the flash of the photographer’s camera, and the buzz of hundreds of dressed-to-impress guests. Sativa The Queen will work the crowd while Free Rain delivers the soundtrack of the decade. Between dance floor throwdowns, trivia rounds, and costume contests, you’ll have countless chances to win prizes and bragging rights.

Portrait photography will be on hand to capture your look—whether that’s a sleek tux with a skinny tie, a ruffled prom dress, or an outrageous mashup of both. And if you’re feeling competitive, the dance-off is your chance to prove your moonwalk is sharper than ever.

This is the prom you always wanted: no chaperones, no curfews, and no bad cafeteria food—just great drinks, unforgettable entertainment, and the kind of vibe that keeps you talking for weeks.
