How to set up a silent disco in five minutes

Setting up a silent disco takes about five minutes. Everything arrives charged and ready, and there is nothing to wire into the walls.

1. Collect your gear

Pickup from Mount Eliza is self-serve, 24 hours a day. The address and instructions, and a gate code if one is needed, are sent by email once your booking is confirmed. Rosebud pickup is by appointment only, arranged after your booking is confirmed.

2. Switch on the transmitter

The transmitter is portable and battery-powered, so it can sit wherever your music is. If you booked more than one, each transmitter is its own channel.

3. Connect your music

Anything that plays audio works: a phone, a laptop or a DJ controller. Connect by Bluetooth or by audio cable into the transmitter. If you use Bluetooth, connect one music device to each transmitter.

4. Switch on the headsets

Hand them out. Each headset has its own volume and a button to change channel, so guests can pick their music and set their own level.

5. Pack up and return

At the end of the hire period, switch everything off and pack it as you received it. Running late? Just let us know.
