BOOGIE BUFFET — A Retro Cookout Party


🎉 BOOGIE BUFFET — The Retro Cookout Party of the Year! 🍽️💃🏾✨

Step into the past, serve up the flavour, and dance through the decades.

 Boogie Buffet is here!
Hosted by Ubuntu Society x Indonesian Society x Fashion Society, this multicultural cookout brings together food, fashion, and feel-good vibes all under one roof.

Come dressed like your parents in their prime — whether that’s 70s disco, 80s bold prints, 90s streetwear, or early 2000s nostalgia. This is the night to recreate iconic family looks and show off the style that raised you! 🌍🕺🏾✨
