104-Year-Old Woman Requests Rave for Her Birthday

Hilda Jackson, a 104-year-old from Derbyshire, UK, is proving that age is just a number as she prepares to celebrate her 105th birthday with a full-fledged rave. Set to take place on February 25 at Holbrook Hall care home, the event will feature a live DJ, UV lighting, and glow sticks, ensuring a vibrant night for Jackson and her fellow residents.

Jackson, who has always had a passion for dancing and music, requested a high-energy celebration to reflect her zest for life. “She’s always been a big fan of dancing and living life to the fullest,” said Rebecca Wass, care home manager in an interview with BBC. This isn’t the first time she has embraced the rave culture—her 104th birthday saw residents dancing with glow sticks, setting the precedent for this year’s electrifying event

Born in 1919, Jackson has witnessed monumental historical events but remains young at heart. She worked in a munitions factory during World War II and spent much of her youth traveling and enjoying life to the fullest. Now, she’s showing the world that partying has no age limit.

The Holbrook Hall team is encouraging people to send birthday cards to mark the occasion. With rave lights flashing and beats pumping, Jackson is set to celebrate in true party spirit. “She’s always been a big fan of dancing and living life to the fullest so she wanted to do something to represent that.”
