About Afterglow Silent Disco
Round up your mates, grab a drink and step inside one of the most spectacular dancefloors you’ll ever experience.
Set within Submergence by internationally acclaimed light artists Squidsoup, you’ll dance beneath thousands of glowing points of light that pulse, shimmer and swirl around you, transforming the space into an unforgettable late-night playground.
Three DJs. Three channels. One epic soundtrack. Whether you’re all about 90s nostalgia, 00s anthems, indie floor-fillers, guilty pleasures or today’s biggest hits, there’s a channel with your name on it.
Forget sticky nightclub floors. This is an immersive artwork you can dance inside.
Hosted by the legendary Awesome Silent Discos – the team behind the sell-out silent discos at Newcastle Cathedral, St Edward’s Bay and Cullercoats Bay – expect huge singalongs, questionable dance moves, loads of laughs and the kind of night you’ll still be talking about long after the headphones come off.
