The Blow Monkeys, Womack and Womack, and Go West have all been confirmed to appear at the Eighties themed opening night of this year's Godiva Festival.
The live performances on the main stage by The Blow Monkeys, Womack and Womack, and Go West will be accompanied by some disco classics pumped out throughout the evening.
Mick McLaughlin, Marketing and Communications Manager at CV One Ltd, who organises the event said, "This promises to be one the biggest Friday nights at Godiva yet, this is the first time we've gone all out and held a themed evening for the launch day. We have some fantastic live acts booked which dominated the charts back in the day, a classic 80's anthems soundtrack complete with a fancy dress contest, what more could you possibly ask for?"
