Silent discos are a brilliant way to bring something different to your event, offering a level of flexibility and fun that traditional parties can’t match. This blog explores how a silent disco works, how to set up the technology and explains everything you need to create an unforgettable event.

What is a Silent Disco?

Silent discos are a vibrant event where the music is brought to you through wireless headphones, rather than through traditional speakers. Silent events are increasing in popularity, giving attendees a customised listening experience with a range of music channels to enjoy.

Silent disco technology makes curfews and strict noise restrictions a thing of the past, keeping the vibes and endless music going all night.

How it Works

If you’re finding yourself asking how does a silent disco work, think of it like tuning into FM radio. Set up is simple  – you simply plug each transmitter into the mains.

Each headset comes with an iPad, which is used to select your music from a range of popular genres.

Once the iPad is connected to the transmitter, you’re good to go; all that’s left to do is grab a pair of headphones to test it, ensuring the volume and channel control is working as it should.

Not everyone has the same taste in music, which is why we offer 3-channel and 10-channel colour-coded LED headphones.
