THIS IS IT, I LOVE DISCO celebrates the King of Pop: a tribute night dedicated to Michael Jackson at Space Electronic
When speaking of absolute icons of world music, Michael Jackson is a universe unto himself. He is style, he is revolution, he is pure emotion. With this spirit, I LOVE DISCO organized a truly unique event: a THIS IS IT night, a grand tribute dedicated to the King of Pop, capable of transforming the historic Florentine nightclub Space Electronic into a musical and visual time machine.
The event was not just a tribute, but a true immersive experience, designed to allow participants to relive the magic, power, and energy of the most iconic moments of Jackson’s career. A celebration that brought back to the stage the spectacle, the looks, and the imagery that made the artist an eternal legend.
Space Electronic: the perfect setting for a THIS IS IT night
Space Electronic, a true symbol of Florentine nightlife since the 1970s, was the ideal location for this special evening. A venue that has always embraced innovation, music, and creativity, and which this time hosted a tribute with a cinematic flavor.
For the occasion, the club was illuminated and decorated with references to the King of Pop’s most celebrated music videos: red and blue lights to evoke Thriller, scenography reminiscent of Smooth Criminal, luminous details perfect for recreating Billie Jean.
The atmosphere was so carefully crafted that it truly felt like witnessing a live performance from the legendary “THIS IS IT” tour, almost an imaginary bridge between Florence and Hollywood.
DiscoLovers in “Jackie” mode: a spectacular transformation
While the tribute was dedicated to Michael Jackson, the true stars of the evening were once again the DiscoLovers.
For one night they transformed into the most beloved characters from the Jacksonian universe, perfectly interpreting the Jackie style required by the theme.
The room was a triumph of:
-
black hats in Smooth Criminal style,
-
dark star sunglasses,
-
jackets with brilliant golden braiding,
-
tight pants and glittered gloves,
-
total black or total white looks with luminous details,
-
feathers, silver boas, and accessories that sparkled like in the real backstage of THIS IS IT.
Every DiscoLover looked like they had stepped out of a King of Pop music video. Some paid homage to the 1980s version, others to the 1990s, while some reinterpreted the futuristic looks of Bad or Dangerous.
The result? An evening where fashion, creativity, and theatricality merged into a single, explosive collective identity.
Music at the center: a true Thriller night… THIS IS IT!
From the first to the last song, the evening was a crescendo of emotions.
The musical selection traversed Jackson’s entire career, covering every era and every style: from the energetic hits of the Jackson 5 to the more mature and powerful tracks of the 2000s.
Every hit sparked choruses, dancing, and moments of pure magic.
When Thriller, Beat It, Billie Jean, Black or White, or Bad started playing, Space Electronic transformed into one immense stage.
And just as happened during the preparations for the celebrated THIS IS IT show, the dancers and performers of the evening paid tribute to the most famous choreographies, involving the audience in an emotional journey.
The room vibrated with energy: moonwalk improvisations, groups attempting to imitate the perfect toe stand, impersonators showing off synchronized movements, and even small theatrical moments themed around Smooth Criminal and Thriller.
Not just for fans: an evening that moved everyone
One of the greatest qualities of Michael Jackson’s music is its ability to unite different people.
And the I LOVE DISCO evening dedicated to the King of Pop fully demonstrated this.
There were not only longtime fans, collectors, or enthusiasts:
there were people who had not listened to Michael Jackson in years, young people who discovered him through social media, and groups of friends who came out of curiosity.
But in the end, everyone shared the same enthusiasm.
Every song brought back a memory: an adolescent dance, a film watched with family, a music video seen on TV, a happy moment. And it is precisely this universal power that made the event a true success.
THIS IS IT: the tribute that will remain in the community’s memory
This night dedicated to Michael Jackson was not just a musical tribute, but a true manifesto of the soul of I LOVE DISCO:
creativity, emotion, spectacle, and a very strong bond with its community.
Thanks to the care of the organization, the historic location of Space Electronic, and the incredible participation of the DiscoLovers, the evening became a memory destined to last.
A tribute that managed to unite nostalgia, energy, and an authentic, intense, unforgettable THIS IS IT spirit.
And when an evening manages to revive the magic of an artist like Michael Jackson, it means one thing:
the music continues. Always.
