Summerhall returns for a New Year’s Eve celebration like no other! Every 30 minutes at Magic Nostalgic, we’ll invite someone from the crowd to come up onto the stage and spin the wheel. Wherever it lands determines what kind of music you’ll find yourself singing along to for the next 30 minutes. Will it be 90’s rave? Power ballads? Brit pop? Hip-hop? Disco divas? Girl bands vs boy bands? Only fate (and a big glittery wheel) will decide…
