From Pier to Ear — Beats Only You Can Hear
Blyth Town Council hosts a Free Silent Disco
Blyth Town Council treated residents to an unforgettable afternoon of music, movement, and laughter with a free Silent Disco at the Mermaid Car Park.
Delivered in partnership with the professional team at Awesome Silent Disco, the event drew in crowds of all ages for a unique, feel-good celebration. The beach area came alive with dancers sporting glowing wireless headphones, creating a sea of colour and energy.
A silent disco is a party with a twist — instead of traditional loudspeakers, music is streamed through wireless headphones. Guests can switch between different channels to enjoy a choice of playlists, creating their own personal soundtrack. From the outside, it looks like a crowd dancing in silence, but for those wearing the headphones, it’s an immersive and exhilarating music experience.
The event brought together people of all generations to dance, sing, and connect in a fun way — without disturbing the neighbours! In fact, the only thing quieter than the music was the phone line for noise complaints.
Mayor of Blyth, Councillor David Swinhoe shared his enthusiasm for the event:
“The Silent Disco is a brilliant way to bring our community together. It’s fun, inclusive, and accessible to all — and the fact it doesn’t disturb nearby residents makes it even better. I’m proud that Blyth Town Council can fund events like this, giving people memorable experiences right here in our town.”
The success of the Silent Disco highlights Blyth Town Council’s commitment to providing free, high-quality events that encourage community spirit and bring people into the town centre.
