Mr McClelland’s Finishing School is hands down one of the best dance parties in Melbourne. The monthly dance party of all things indie, pop, rock and soul usually cuts loose on dance floors across Melbourne (in the past it’s been held at Bella Union, the Espy and the Gaso) but now it’s heading to Persa.
Every second Thursday, the Finishing School crew are heading to Fitzroy's Perseverance Hotel. Finishing School promises to play everything from the Smiths to Taylor Swift, the Beatles to Lime Cordiale, and it’s all but guaranteed you’ll be bopping along on the dance floor.
Tickets are $15, doors open at 10pm. Best to book a ticket before you go though – this tends to book out.
