Grab your high-waisted mom jeans and your flannel and get yourself to ‘90s NightLife for a celebration of iconic pop culture.

Step into the garden for an epic medley of ‘90s movie soundtracks (think Forrest Gump, Sonic The Hedgehog, Hook) by the Awesöme Orchestra Collective.

Chat with Bay Area experts as they highlight or debunk the science in some of the decade’s biggest movies, from Volcano to Contact. The SETI Institute's Jill Tarter will be on hand, along with Pascal Lee and Simon Steel.

Show off your button-mashing skills with classic video game tournaments.

Round out the evening with a dance party fueled by throwback jams spun by The Bedazzlers and cocktails inspired by some of the ‘90s most popular drinks and snacks.
