SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) — From lava lamps to popular film and TV references, a 90s-themed speakeasy has popped back up in San Diego after it sold out last year.
The Back 2 The Video Store speakeasy bar brings people back in time to the days of renting a movie and collecting Pogs, complete with photo backdrops and decor inspired by films like “Clueless,” “Ghostbusters” and more.
The pop-up concept was created by Derek Berry, the head of experiences for the event advertising platform, Bucket Listers.
Guests can browse video store shelves but instead of pulling down a movie to rent, they can choose from a wide selection of drinks and curated cocktails inspired by award-winning films.
General admission is $22 per person and includes a welcome drink inspired by either “Jumanji” or “Men in Black.” Admission also includes a 90-minute reservation, with food and additional drinks available for purchase.
The Back 2 The Video Store speakeasy pop-up is now open Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays until Oct. 19 at the Parq Nightclub located at 615 Broadway. The experience is also currently being offered in Boston.
