Cherry PoP! Ladies Night at Backline Live

If you’re not glamping it up in the West Sussex countryside at Vintage at Goodwood, but want to have a some vintage fun – with a modern twist – then look no further than the new ladies night at Backline Live in Guildford, Surrey.

Cherry POP!, in association with TUCA (The Unique Communications Agency), is a monthly, vintage inspired club night warm up – just for the ladies.

Kicking off at 7pm (until 10pm), tonight includes a  free cocktail on arrival and Rockabilly tunes from the DJ; setting the scene for pampering – courtesy of the Angelic Rebels, risque frivolity – courtesy of Judy from Ann Summers and other vintage girlies with their own specialist offerings, including styling lessons, fashion fixes and adult games (oh I say)

Good girls will receive their very own goodie bag packed with style tips, discounts and freebies and the ticket price also includes free entry to Backline Live’s later club night (until 2.30am) where the boys will be back.

Tickets for Cherry POP! are £6 and available online at We got Tickets and Backline Live.

Enjoy getting ready for club night fun with your girlfriends; sip a few cocktails, pick up free goodies and vintage style tips and enjoy the party…maybe see you there? Toodle-Pip!

Vintage is coming to Goodwood!

So, excitement is building, Vintage at Goodwood is nearly upon us! Kicking off on 13th August (well 12th with Vintage Race Night at Goodwood), celebrating British cool from the 1940’s, 50’s, 60’s, 70’s & 80’s and featuring everything from film and music to fashion and beauty, this is the Festival’s first year.

The festival is brainchild of designers Gerardine Hemingway MBE, Wayne Hemingway MBE (The Land of Lost Content Museum) and Lord March (Goodwood Festival of Speed, Goodwood Revival, amazing Organic Farm owner!) and its full of treats for Vintage lovers.

We’re particularly excited about the music; featuring acts such as Martha and the Vandellas and Sandie Shaw’s ‘Reclaim the Song’ featuring guest vocalists including Sophie Ellis-Bextor.
