With less than a week to go, fans of Eighties rock can grab the chance to relive their youth and dance the night away when five classic acts from the era visit Caldicot Castle.

The one day Retroactive Festival is headlined by hit machine The Human League with support from Spandau Ballet's Tony Hadley, Jason Donovan, Imagination featuring Leee John and tribute act One Night of Queen. Tickets are moving quickly so organisers have advised people planning on attending the gig to purchase early or face disappointment.

Gates open at 3pm and the music starts two hours later. Camping is available on Friday night in the beautiful grounds of the neighbouring country park.

Councillor Bob Greenland, Monmouthshire's cabinet member with responsibility for leisure said: "This is a rare opportunity to catch noted performers from the 1980's in a wonderful setting - and on our doorstep. Music starts at 5pm so people will be able to finish work and make the most of the evening."
