How Silent Disco works

What are the Silent Disco rules?

Guest are issued with headphones on arrival. The evening is soundtracked by up to three DJs, with guests changing channels at will. The DJs throw in some party games too!

Who is the Silent Disco for?

The Silent Disco works for any number of guests from 25 to 500.

How long does Silent Disco last?

The Silent Disco lasts between one and three hours — depending on your energy levels!

How does Silent Disco work?

In Silent Disco, the music is transmitted through a radio frequency directly into the headphones worn by the participants. Each participant is provided with a pair of wireless headphones at the beginning of the event, which have built-in receivers that can tune into different channels. Instead of a single DJ playing music for everyone, the Silent Disco usually has multiple DJs playing simultaneously. Each DJ broadcasts their set on a specific channel, which participants can select on their headphones. This unique feature allows people to switch between channels and customise their musical experience. Since the music is played directly into the headphones, the surrounding area remains relatively quiet, making the Silent Disco perfect for venues with noise restrictions.

How much does a Silent Disco cost?

The cost of a Silent Disco can vary depending on various factors, such as the number of headphones needed, the duration of the event, the number of DJs and any additional services or equipment required. Typically, the cost includes the rental of the wireless headphones, the audio transmitters and sometimes the services of a technician to set up and manage the equipment.

Is the Silent Disco fun?

Yes, the Silent Disco is an incredibly fun and unique experience! The concept of dancing and enjoying music while wearing wireless headphones may seem unusual at first, but it creates an interactive and immersive atmosphere. It’s a fantastic way to let loose, dance without inhibition and enjoy a one-of-a-kind party experience that will leave you with incredible memories.

I could not be happier with how the event was organised in the months preceding the event and how it was managed on the days. Sarah and her team were both efficient and delightful to work with. I also had positive feedback from my co-host colleagues and a large number of delegates. I am in fact already in dealings with Maximillion again, in preparation of a new international meeting. I highly recommend Maximillion and Sarah Esslemont for leading and organising meeting.

Mr Nicola de Liguori Carino, MD

Like many other professional service providers, we are often metaphorically ‘spinning plates’ and ‘juggling’ competing priorities, so it was great for our team to try these challenges in real life. We discovered hidden talents and it reinforced that working as a team and providing a supportive learning environment are key to delivering an excellent result. Thank you to Maximillion for your support and encouragement during this fun event, as well as for your professionalism in pulling together a slick activity for 220 people.

Lee Hamill, Director of Finance

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to the Lake District. Jenny & Rhys are extremely easy to work with and made both our Wednesday evening boat cruise and Thursday team building events, evening meal and band fun and enjoyable for all who attended. We would definitely use them again.Thank you Maximillion.

Resolis

Fantastic day and really enabled people to get to know each other and have a laugh at the same time. Exactly the aim!

University of Edinburgh

Maximillion was great! They were responsive and accommodating and we would definitely use them again.

Everyone had a really good time and loved all the different levels and variety that Level-Up brought. Maximillion always provide an excellent event and guide you through the organising process with clarity, confidence and advice.

Davidson Chalmers Stewart

The Lego Serious play event was a great hit with all of our Scotframe participants. Such a great way to get everyone involved and really work as a team.

Scotframe

The general comment today in the office is how amazing the event was and how much fun people had.

University of Edinburgh

Maximillion ran the Urban Adventure for our teams with the activity run in Edinburgh city centre and the feedback has been nothing but positive. The activity brought teams together from different offices and different business areas and was a great way for everyone to get to know each other in a fun and informal activity.

Nucleus Financial

With restrictions in place that curtailed our previous plans for the company’s 50th anniversary we were delighted to find a great alternative and a team well-equipped to deliver an event for such a significant milestone. The Maximillion team worked closely with us, making suggestions and sharing ideas to help make our virtual away day celebrations a real occasion. The feedback from the events was really positive and it was great to have a chance to get together in such a fun environment when all the teams have been working so hard over the past months.
