On Friday, July 10th, Pet Shop Boys will be performing at Matter, the exclusive venue in the O2 Arena complex, as part of of “U R The Night”, presented by Smirnoff. According to the official press release: “With a mission to keep good times fresh and original, The Smirnoff Co. will ask Londoners to be part of the night by submitting original ideas and voting on different aspects of the event — including the warm-up boat party, music on the night via the DJ’s playlist and original cocktails — in exchange for getting access to the event.”
Pet Shop Boys and Little Boots will be performing and there will be DJ sets from Hot Chip and others.
Tickets can only be obtained by “getting involved in creating the night itself”. Full details can be found only at the Facebook link below.
