Silent disco may seem like a new concept to you but the truth is the idea has been around since the nineties. This kind of gathering is common in Europe. It is not your typical clubbing event wherein clubbers dance their hearts out by listening to loud music transmitted through the conventional big speakers. Instead, participants will look as if they are dancing to nothing since music is transmitted via wireless headphones. The participants are armed with wireless headphones where signals from an FM-transmitter are broadcasted. Two Djs will be broadcasting music live through dedicated FM channels.

The silent headphone disco event gained popularity through the rock festival circuit. And due to its unique concept, more clubbing events adapted the idea,which turned this conceptual art into a full-scale clubbing phenomenon that made it a large-scale event. Silent headphone disco events attract hundreds of participants who would like to observe a surreal spectacle unfold in front of their eyes.

When you get an invitation to this kind of clubbing event, you will surely be caught in awe since you will see a room full of clubbers wearing headphones throwing moves, singing along and pulling shapes to what appears to everyone else as utter silence. The growing interest for such kind of disco event resulted in the significant rise of companies organizing parties and events where wireless headphones are used.
