Wake up the members of your nation; it’s your time to iParty!

Best known for his role as Robbie Shapiro on the hit Nickelodeon show “Victorious”, Matt Bennett is hosting iParty, a DJ set traveling nationwide playing nothing but classic 2000s Disney and Nickelodeon hits from shows and movies such as The Cheetah Girls, Hannah Montana, iCarly, Victorious (obviously!), and much more. 

Bennett technically began as a guest DJ back in October when the event was still under the name “Disney and Nick Girlz Rock”, affiliated with Club 90s, an organization that similarly hosts themed club nights with various artists including One Direction, Bad Bunny, The Weeknd, and more. 

What started out as an occasional DJ gig quickly turned into a national tour due to extremely high demand from the fans, and thus iParty was born. Accompanied by DJ Jeffery and Michael Weber, iParty has become a viral success, gaining over 44k Instagram followers and 142k Tiktok followers within its 4-month run. 

The nostalgic atmosphere attracts Gen-Z clubbers to come together and sing the anthems that defined their childhood at the top of their lungs. The carefully selected throwback party mix instantly transports you back to the late ‘00s- early ‘10s, playing jams such as the “That’s So Raven” theme song, “Best Friend’s Brother” from Victorious, and “This is Me” from Camp Rock. 

As these bops are blasting, correlating images from the movies, TV shows, and music videos are projected behind the DJs. Bennett tries to make the show as interactive and personal as possible, going as far as inviting fans onstage to perform iconic dances such as “Hoedown Throwdown” from the Hannah Montana movie and “We’re All In This Together” from High School Musical.

As if this show couldn’t get any better, Bennett adds a nice cherry on top by occasionally inviting his former Victorious co-stars as special guests to the stage. So far, he has invited Liz Gillies, who played Jade West, to sing “Give It Up”, and Daniella Monet, who played Trina Vega, to sing “Chicago”. As expected, fans lost their minds and gave the guests 110% of their energy.
