Barbie Dance Party coming to Dublin this June

In what promises to certainly be a unique event, The Button Factory is hosting a Barbie Dance Party on Friday 16th June.

The special club night, which looks to be the ultimate bash for all things Barbie, will celebrate the release of the highly anticipated upcoming Barbie movie.

In a post promoting the event, Paradime Events bragged that the night in the Button Factory will be "THE Barbie Party of the year", and said that "Kens are welcome too".

Paradime have also promised that there will be a Barbie photo booth, pink lighting, balloons, "and everything else Barbie you can think of as we celebrate the release of the highly anticipated new Barbie Movie!"

A mandated dress code of pink will be in place for the event, and the promoters have encouraged people to not forget their accessories – tiaras, sunglasses and all things Barbie.
