Partygoers will enjoy DJ entertainment, club cocktail classics, entertainment (on-site tattoo and caricature artists), and, of course, nostalgic coin-op arcade games.

Guests can look forward to music by DJ KC Dalton – one of Coin-Op’s own talented team members – setting the sonic mood, along with tattooing by Sebastian Garcia of American Gypsy Tattoo in Golden Hill for those who want to mark the night in a bold way. For a less permanent memento, caricature artist Dianne Colina will be creating complimentary caricatures for attendees from 8 to 10:30 p.m., making the evening a fully immersive throwback experience.
Coin-Op North Park’s drink menu will also feature revamped club cocktail classics crafted specially for the anniversary, courtesy of sponsors Layback, Bacardi, and Diageo. Highlights include:

Rusty Nail – Johnnie Walker Scotch, Drambuie, and bitters for a classic blend.

Cuba Libre – Lime-infused Bacardi with Coca-Cola, a refreshing twist on the favorite.

Piña Colada (frozen) – Santa Teresa Rum, coconut, and pineapple for that true 80s vibe.

White Russian – Layback Vodka, Mr. Black Coffee, and cream for a smooth and rich sip.

Midori Sour – Layback Vodka, Midori, lemon, honey, and foam to capture a sweet yet tangy balance.
