Birthday Bash: Pepe's On The Beach

"Nothing is weird on a Saturday night out. Bikini tops left lying around - now that's pretty common!"

Answered by: Eli West

What's happened with the venue since your last birthday? We're turning one so we are still youngsters. We've already just opened our new bar Kokomo on the back deck!

What do you put the success of your venue down to? The friendliest staff in Wollongong, freshest and fruitiest cocktails, laid-back beach vibes plus our prime waterfront location!

Has anyone ever worn their birthday suit in your club? Not yet, but there's a first time for everything... and this is our first birthday!

What's the weirdest thing in the last year you've found when the lights have come on? Nothing is weird on a Saturday night out. Bikini tops left lying around - now that's pretty common!

What sort of celebration is in order? The amazing Michelle Martinez will be playing with her sax and DJ trio. Kombivan PhotoBooth, cupcakes and our new bar.

When's the party? Thursday 10 Dec from 7pm. Rain, hail or shine, Pepe's First Birthday Bash is tipped as the party of 2015!
