Gather a group of your friends and dance to the decades greatest hits at these special dance nights at McMenamins’ historic venue, Mission Theater.
For the past 16 years, VJ Kittyrox has hosted Video Dance Attack, Portland’s longest running theme-night dance party. This video-based dance night features music videos of all eras projected onto giant screens. The quality sound and light show make this event an ideal dance party.
I’ve been to a few of these events in the past and it is such a fun night out on the town. Something about the music videos draws everyone in and keeps the party going all night.
The historic Mission Theater is a great venue for movies, music and dancing. This slice of Portland history used to be home to the Swedish Mission Covenant congregation in the early 20th century. Despite its modest beginnings, the venue is now a great place to enjoy a fun event.
Here are the upcoming Video Dance Attack events at Mission Theater.
