The Cincinnati Pops take it back to the 1980s with this evening of programming and themed performances.

The Pops, led by conductor Stuart Chafetz and vocalists Aaron Finley and Julie Reiber, will be performing the biggest hits of the decade from acts like Blondie, Cher, George Michael and Kool & The Gang.

The Heroes Rise Street Dance Experience will also be on hand to perform “old school, eye-popping, pop-locking moves.”

Attendees are encouraged to dress in their best (or worst) 1980s attire; leg warmers, Members Only jackets and crimped hair are welcome.

7 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 17. Tickets start at $25. Music Hall, 1241 Elm St., Over-the-Rhine, cincinnatisymphony.org.
