Get ready for hair metal music and Zubaz pants.

The Arizona Diamondbacks will be hosting ’80s night Friday at Chase Field as they take on the Colorado Rockies in the first of a three-game weekend series.

Prior to the game, ’80s cover band Red Lobster will perform at the Game Seven Grill and breakdancers will entertain fans outside the stadium. The Knight Rider car and the Ectomobile from “Ghostbusters” will also take a lap around the field prior to the first pitch.

The team said it will be playing ’80s hits throughout the evening, and players will be adorned with ’80s fashion in their headshots to be shown during the game.

A postgame fireworks show set to ’80s music will also take place, and the team will conduct a Twitter trivia contest throughout the day where fans can participate for a chance to win Zubaz pants.

Fans that purchase the ’80s Night package will receive a pair of D-backs Zubaz pants. Tickets for the package are still available at 602-514-8400. Click here for more information on the event.

The Diamondbacks-Rockies game begins at 6:40 p.m.
