I was interested in going to the Motown Dance Party event at Cameo this Friday, but I can’t find the event on Cameo’s website, and the “more info” link only talked about it being in London and Toronto. Could you please confirm that this event is happening, and where I can find that info. Thank you!
Hi Celeste,
The Motown Party event was listed by the organizers on our calendar. And, according to them, its indeed happening this Friday night, in The Back Room of Cameo. You can contact them at [email protected]. Their website is also http://www.goodkids.ca.
I emailed goodkids, and got this reply: “We took a break for the winter and will be relaunching in manhattan in April.” Just thought you should know, so you could remove the event from your website.
Thank you Celeste! Duly noted.
