About This Event

ARCHIVES returns to Cardiff this Freshers season, offering a dedicated throwback night on Wednesday 30 September, with doors opening at 10pm. The event promises an evening rooted in R&B and hip-hop from the 2000s and 2010s, deliberately steering clear of TikTok edits and overplayed remixes in favour of the original cuts that defined those decades. The venue for the night has yet to be confirmed, adding an element of anticipation for those looking to secure their spot early. Tickets are priced at a reasonable £3, making it an accessible option for students and Cardiff locals alike. This focused approach to programming aims to provide a genuine nostalgia trip, allowing attendees to hear the tracks that shaped a generation without the interference of modern viral trends. With its straightforward commitment to the era’s core sounds, ARCHIVES positions itself as a refreshing alternative for Freshers week, appealing to those who want to dance to the classics rather than the latest internet fads. Further details regarding the location are expected to be announced closer to the date.
