Plan ahead!

The Baby Loves Disco Lemonade Tour 2010 comes to Towson Town Center Saturday, Aug. 21, from 1 to 4 p.m.

It’s the first-ever national tour for Baby Loves Disco, offering an internationally acclaimed mix of music, dancing and fun-filled activities for parents and their young children. The party lands in 45 cities this season, touching down in nightclubs, children’s hospitals, shopping malls and schools across the United States. It’s a dance party with a mission — spreading awareness and raising money for Alex’s Lemonade Stand, a nonprofit organization devoted to finding a cure for childhood cancer.

Started five years ago in a Philadelphia nightclub, Baby Loves Disco grew into an international phenomenon as an afternoon dance party featuring real music spun and mixed by real DJs blending classic disco tunes from the ‘70s and ‘80s. True to its trademark style, the party will continue for the Baby Loves Disco Lemonade Tour 2010, as thousands of parents, grandparents and kids bop and play at venues of all kinds.

Admission is free in Towson, but wristbands must be picked up at H&M in the mall.

On Sunday, Aug. 22, Baby Loves Disco sets up shop at The 9:30 Club, 815 V Street in Washington, DC. There is an admission charge for this location — $20 per walking human — and tickets can be purchased online at www.ticketfly.com/purchase/event/12521. A family four-pack is $50.
