About this event

Ring in the new year right with two electric nights of 80s nostalgia as Guardians of the Jukebox returns to Club LA in Destin on January 8-9, 2027. Created by Rich Ward of Fozzy and Stuck Mojo fame, Guardians of the Jukebox is the definitive live tribute to the golden era of MTV — New Wave, New Romantic, synth-pop, and arena rock anthems that defined a generation, performed with the full energy and precision of a seasoned touring act.

Club LA is the go-to Destin venue for nationally recognized rock and tribute acts, and this two-night stand gives fans in the Emerald Coast area a proper start to the new year. Whether you grew up with these songs or you are discovering the era fresh, the energy of a packed Club LA crowd singing along to the biggest hits of the 80s is the kind of night people talk about long after they return home from vacation.

Shows start at 8PM on both Friday and Saturday nights. Tickets are available through the Club LA website and major ticketing platforms. Club LA is a 21+ venue. The Destin area in January has significantly lower accommodation rates, making this an excellent low-season escape with a great concert to anchor the weekend.

Best for: 80s music fans, anyone who loves a great tribute act, couples or groups looking for an energetic night out

What to expect: Two-night stand, New Wave/pop/rock 80s hits performed live, Club LA atmosphere, doors at 8PM

Planning tip: January is low season — hotel rates in Destin drop significantly after the holidays, making this a great budget-friendly weekend trip

Cost: Tickets available at rockdestin.com and major platforms; 21+ only
