Get your neon threads and low-rise jeans at the ready, because Victoria Secret, Davina Devine and Annie Balls are channelling the best of the ’90s and ’00s with a daytime party coming to The George this December.
On Saturday, December 6, one of Dublin’s most beloved LGBTQ+ spots will play host to Flashback, a daytime event celebrating the iconic pop divas and club bangers that dominated the ’90s and ’00s. Think Britney, Christina, Whitney, Mariah and Madonna.
Flashback will be hosted by Victoria and Davina, and they’ll be joined by legendary icon of the Dublin scene, Annie Balls. Essentially, Cher will perform all our favourite Cher hits with a Christmassy twist, and DJ Anto will be on the decks, serving up all the throwback tunes we could want.
Speaking to GCN ahead of Flashback, Victoria Secret shared that the daytime party aims to capture the fun of the ’00s and ’90s clubbing scene.

“We both are hoping to capture some of the fun from when we came out,” Victoria said. “Everybody remembers their first visit to a queer space and that feeling. For both of us, it was in The George that we felt safe enough to be visibly queer and also celebrated for it.”
Flashback also aims to provide a clubbing outlet for those who no longer go out at night.
“It’s a daytime event, so maybe some people who are no longer fans of the late-night revelling will make their return,” she said. “It’s also a chance for newer faces on the scene to come and see some queer talent that they may not have been around for.”
Victoria and Davina are particularly excited for the long-anticipated return of Annie Balls.
“Annie was known for being the queen of the game show, for having Kermit the Frog as a sidekick, for nailing a Whitney lipsync and for reading anyone to filth,” Victoria said. “She also did a huge amount of work with charities and she was the face of so many successful events throughout the years. We can’t wait to welcome her back to The George and have a good catch-up and laugh with her while also enjoying some classic Annie Balls back on stage.”
Flashbacks kicks off at The George from 3pm on Saturday, December 6. Tickets are available right here.
