Take a look into the bizarre world of electric passion as Copperdollar celebrates Mexico’s Day of the Dead with an evening of visual and hypnotic entertainment.
Copperdollar’s parties are a visual feast of performance as they celebrate from the success of Glastonbury 2013. If you missed the festival this summer then this is a great opportunity to have a taste of what they do. This is a night to remember, a place you’ll never forget, where the future is past and yesterday hasn’t been.
