Renowned pop party club gets a £200,000 refresh
Preston is braced to welcome back the nation’s favourite party when Popworld reopens its glittery doors on 7th December.
Since its shiny beginnings in Southampton, the chain of pop-themed nightclubs has seen four years of incredible growth and has forged a legendary status throughout the UK by providing unforgettable nights out filled with fun, laughter and great music. With the reopening of Popworld Preston, there will now be 33 sites nationwide.
Kicking-off with a bang, the opening weekend will be a fun-packed retro bonanza starting with a VIP party on Friday 7th December complete with street entertainers and a guest appearance from McFly’s Dougie Poynter on Saturday 8th December. Renowned for championing nineties’ cheese and noughties’ nostalgia, expect further live performances, inflatables galore, classic Popworld props and mountains of confetti.
Customers will be able to enjoy a wide range of delicious deals on drinks, cocktail masterclasses and the poptastic signature sharer, the Partini, an absolute must in any VIP night out!!
Jamie Rosenfeld, Brand Manager at Popworld, said: “We are so excited to bring Popworld back to Preston. We have had such great success over the past few years and are continuing to grow as a brand, throwing unforgettable parties across the UK. With the revamped site, we can’t wait to show off our new look and continue providing great nights out for all!”
