What is a silent disco?

A silent disco is a fun-filled event where people dance to music broadcast to wireless headphones rather than a speaker system. This allows different music to play simultaneously, giving participants the option to switch between channels and choose their preferred music. To an outside observer, the scene can seem quite surreal, as participants dance to seemingly silent music.

How does a silent disco work?

A silent disco uses transmitters to send music wirelessly to headphones worn by participants. Multiple DJs or music sources can broadcast different playlists simultaneously, and attendees can switch between channels on their headphones to listen to the music they prefer. We supply the transmitters you need to broadcast two channels of your own music.

Why hire a silent disco?

There are several reasons why you might consider hiring a silent disco for your party:

  • Flexibility: Silent discos have multiple music channels, allowing guests to choose the type of music they want to listen to. This can cater to a diverse group of attendees, of all ages with differing musical tastes.
  • Noise Control: If you're hosting your party in a venue with noise restrictions or in a residential area where loud music might be a concern, a silent disco can be a perfect solution. Since the music is played through headphones, it doesn't disturb neighbours or get you into trouble.
  • Interactive Experience: Silent discos provide a unique and interactive experience for guests. They can switch between channels, dance with friends listening to the same music, or even take a break from dancing without having to leave the dance floor.
  • Novelty: Silent discos are still relatively uncommon, so having one at your party can add a novelty factor that will make your event fun and memorable.
