Expect doo-wop vocals, funky backbeats and brilliant live performances of the greatest music ever written. Martha Reeves, Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin, Marvin Gaye, Smokey Robinson…
Everyone knows the songs, and nobody can resist dancing to them.
Dance the whole night away because The Ultimate Motown Extravaganza takes place in London’s city centre. The Leonardo Royal Hotel, London City has excellent transport links — or just stay put, relax and book a comfortable room at the 4-star hotel.
You’ll have plenty of time for photos before the doors open to a spectacular Motown-themed event space.
As you’re served a delicious 3-course dinner, our fabulous live singer entertains you with Motown classics, keeping things mellow while the all-inclusive drinks and the conversations flow.
Dinner has been enjoyed… and the evening has just begun. Our on-stage singer is joined by the full band, and this is your chance to shine on the dance floor. Once you’re on it, you’ll struggle to get off again.
