Silent discos are unlike any other party; instead of traditional speakers blaring music over the crowd, each guest wears a personal headset with access to three different DJ-curated channels. The result is a personal dance experience where you can sing along or simply lose yourself in the rhythm – all while the Abbey’s striking, illuminated interior sets the scene for a night to remember. And with a stocked bar serving refreshing draught beers, wines and spirits plus festival-style face painting to get into the spirit of things, the atmosphere is set to be as vibrant and fun as ever.

North east company Awesome Silent Discos, based in Whitley Bay, known for sell-out events such as Silent Discos on the Beach in Tynemouth and Cullercoats, and Newcastle Cathedral Silent Discos, has teamed up with Hexham Abbey to bring you this unmissable event. After their success at Newcastle Cathedral, Britta Koerber, director of Awesome Silent Discos, promises that this event will take things to a whole new level.

“Silent discos in awesome venues are our speciality, and there’s something magical about the history and ambience of a space like Hexham Abbey,” Britta explains. “It’s the perfect setting for a party that’s both unique and unforgettable. Whether you're singing along to a classic hit or just soaking in the atmosphere, it’s going to be an incredible night.”

Hexham Abbey, a Grade I listed building dating back to AD 674, is one of the region’s most iconic landmarks. Its grand interior, with its soaring arches and historical significance, offers a breathtaking contrast to the modern, high-energy feel of a silent disco. For one night, the Abbey will serve as the ultimate party venue, bringing together music, light, and community in a way that’s never been seen before.

Owen Mills, General Manager of Hexham Abbey, says: “We are thrilled to welcome Awesome Silent Discos to Hexham Abbey. This event gives us the opportunity to introduce the Abbey to new faces and show them a completely different side of this historic space. Awesome Silent Discos have a proven track record for delivering fantastic events in unique settings, and we know this one is going to be unforgettable.”
