String Quartet by Candlelight at Staggeringly Good Brewery

Lucky in love? Or just looking for a killer night out?

Kick off your Valentine's weekend with a date night that is truly unique. Forget the cliché set menus and crowded restaurants; surprise your loved one with an intimate, memorable experience at the spectacular Staggeringly Good Brewery Tap Room.

⚠️ WARNING: Capacity is strictly limited for this intimate venue. Our previous specials have sold out quickly, so please book early to avoid heartbreak!

Looking to earn major brownie points? This is the perfect surprise. It’s romantic but relaxed, cultured but cool. Enjoy a glass of wine or a craft beer, share some delicious food, and let the nostalgia wash over you.

Flying solo or celebrating Galentine’s? Gather your group! This is a super informal way to catch up, have a laugh, and argue over which decade was better.

We are bringing you the ultimate string quartet face-off: The 1980s vs The 1990s.

Expect to hear stripped-back, beautiful, and recognisable covers of legends like Madonna, Blondie, Duran Duran, Michael Jackson, and Guns N' Roses.

👻 The Friday 13th Factor: Since the stars have aligned to put this event on Friday the 13th, we can’t resist adding a little mystery to the romance. Alongside the love songs, we’ll be throwing in a few of our "spooky favourites" to keep you on your toes!

Relaxing, informal, and interactive. No stiff concert etiquette here—just great beer, great food, and the soundtrack of your youth played as you’ve never heard it before.

• 8:00 pm: Doors Open. Grab a spot, choose from the extensive beer and wine list, and order some delicious food & snacks.
• 8:30 pm: Set One: A journey through our favourite 80s and 90s anthems (with a dash of Friday 13th suspense!).
• 9:15 pm: Interval. Refill your glasses and stretch your legs.
• 9:45 pm: Set Two: The hits continue—featuring tracks chosen by YOU.
• 10:30 pm: The Grand Finale. We end with some interactivity (a sing-along? A vote on the best decade? You decide!)
• 11:00 pm: Last Drinks.
• 11:30 pm: Carriages.
