Peterborough Cathedral is set to host a retro disco night this summer.
The event, called the Old Skool Summer Disco, will take place on Friday, June 27.
It will celebrate the city's clubbing scene from the 80s and 90s.
These songs were popular at venues such as 5th Avenue, Shanghai Sam's, Quo Vardis, and L'Aristo's.
The decks will be manned by Paul Stainton, a well-known figure in Peterborough's nightlife.

Mr Stainton said: "It seems like yesterday, though my knees tell me otherwise.
"Eddie and I shared the decks at Shanghai Sam's back in the day, and we want to recapture the magic of those club nights inside the Cathedral, with the music that made people dance, brought them together and gave a generation so much joy."
The event is for those aged 18 and over, and tickets are limited. More details from the Cathedral's website.
