The Manc - 26th April 2021

A glitter-draped disco brunch with an endless amount of Rudy’s pizza and booze is coming to Albert Hall in May.

La Discotheque – the show-stopping party promotion famed for serving up funky dance beats, psychedelic decorations and limb-twisting stage performers – is putting its own excited spin on the classic midday meal event; cranking up disco tunes and partnering with one of Manchester’s most beloved food & drink vendors for the occasion.

Albert Hall’s neighbours and nationally-renowned Neapolitan pizzeria Rudy’s will provide slices exclusively for the occasion – giving guests the chance to chow down on some great grub in a groovy atmosphere.

DJ Paulette and Feel Good Choir will be on hand to supply the music all afternoon long.

‘Queens & Flamingos’ will also be in attendance.
