Want to have a budget-friendly option for your silent discos?

A great way to keep costs low for any silent disco is to have a playlist! Here are a few ways to do that!

Spotify:

Make a Spotify playlist with a theme to it. If you are having a Halloween silent disco, curate a Halloween or spooky music playlist. With Spotify search features, you can easily make a playlist. To make it ad free, make sure you have a subscription or borrow someone who has an account! The one thing to watch out for is you can only use one account for each channel, so this can only work for one channel or use three different devices and three different accounts. Worried about your internet or cell service outside? You can save your music offline on Spotify and play on ‘Offline Mode’.

Pandora:

If you have two channels with DJs and just want something low-key on the third channel, you can choose a radio station. You can play by genre or musician/band and it will keep playing songs in those categories. This is an easy way to keep the party going, but not having to monitor a device.

YouTube:

YouTube lets you make playlists and you can pick songs, shuffle them and make sure it’s only the songs you choose. A great way to use YouTube to its fullest ability is to project music videos on a screen or wall and boost the vibes with the silent disco! It is both visual and audible fro everyone to enjoy.

By Request Playlist:

A great way to make sure everyone is having a good time and is hearing music they want to hear, you can use a phone or laptop to have Spotify, YouTube or other streaming platforms open on the device and ask people to add the music to the queue and you can put the shuffle on to mix up the requests.

MP3:

Hook up your MP3 player or your phone and just play what you already have! This is the easiest and cheapest way, just playing what you or someone else has for the silent disco. This is another budget friendly way to keep a silent disco going, but you can only use one phone or MP3 per channel, so have three devices ready if you’re doing a three channel disco.
