Silent Disco Party at Beans and Greens to Benefit Greater Lakes Region Children’s Auction
GILFORD — Beans and Greens will host a Silent Disco Party in its Notch Biergarten, 245 Intervale Road, on Thursday, Aug. 29 at 7 p.m., with doors open at 5 p.m.
The event costs $25 and is a benefit for the Greater Lakes Region Children’s Auction.
A silent disco is a dance party at which attendees listen to music through wireless headphones instead of speakers. Headphones are provided by the party’s sponsor, and a radio transmitter broadcasts the music, which is picked up through the headphones worn by participants.
Silent discos can be similar to club nights or birthday parties, but they allow for different music channels to play at the same time, on three different channels, so people can choose music that suits their taste. For example, a silent disco might have 60s music for grandparents, 80s music for parents and house music for others, all playing simultaneously; headphones light up in different colors, depending on the channel, so groups always know what channels their friends are on.
“It is super fun, and it will help us support children and families and Beans and Greens is a perfect venue for this event,” said Auction Executive Director Jennifer Kelley.
Chris Collias, owner of Beans and Greens, said, “When we bought the farm stand in 2021, we envisioned Beans and Greens as a place where the community could meet, and supporting local causes is a huge part of our mission. We found the silent disco concept in our travels and thought the attraction would be a great addition to the fun things we have going on.”
The Beans and Greens Farm to Foodie Taco Truck, Wood Fired Pizza oven and Notch Provisions menu will be available for dinner/snacks. Beer, wine and cocktails will be sold separately.
