I am loving the whole "quiet event" scene that seems to be trending again right now. While taking a stroll in Soho, New York we came across this outdoor "quiet event" movie pictured below held in the courtyard of Basilica of St. Patrick Old Cathedral on Friday nights. This is going on all around the city. I am so loving this concept.
A silent disco, silent yoga, silent movie or silent rave is an event where people can dance or listen to music or watch a movie with wireless headphones. Rather than using a speaker system, music is broadcast via a radio transmitter with the signal being picked up by wireless headphone receivers worn by the participants. A growing trend in big cities where noise ordinances and other limitations have encouraged event goers to get creative. In NYC thousands of people head out to silent events each week.
Having your own headset allows you to have control of the volume and totally focus on listening to the movie. You don't have to listen to people talk, or chomp on popcorn. Want to talk to your neighbor just take your headset off, have a conversation and you are not disturbing anyone watching the movie. Since it is outdoors less noise pollution.

| Put your headphones on and the sounds of the party pulse to life. You choose what to jam to with a simple flick of a switch. The blue, red, or green light on each headset shows which DJ other party go-ers are listening to. Sway along to the same song as your friends or tap to your own tune |
