Hidden Extras Worth Checking

Worth checking before you commit to any quote:

?
Is VAT included?
Some quotes show ex-VAT prices. Adding 20% can turn a £125 quote into £150.
?
Is delivery free?
Delivery and return collection fees of £15–£25+ are common.
?
Is there a security deposit?
Deposits of £60–£750 are common and tie up your money until equipment is returned.
?
Are transmitters & cables extra?
Some suppliers charge £20+ for extra or third transmitters, and more again for phone adapter cables - all on top of the hire price.
?
What type of headphones?
Check if they're LED 3-channel or basic single-channel models.
?
Are playlists provided?
Not all suppliers include ready-made playlists - you may need to sort your own music.
?
Can you add lighting, karaoke or a DJ?
Most headphone-only suppliers don't do lights, karaoke or DJs. You'd need to sort those separately.

Our promise: Every Silent Disco Party UK price is fully inclusive - VAT, free delivery and return collection, 3 transmitters, cables, phone adapters, Spotify playlists, and tech support.

How much does a silent disco cost?
Silent disco hire costs start from £100 for 5 headphones. All prices include VAT, free DPD delivery and return collection, LED 3-channel headphones, 3 Bluetooth transmitters, all cables and phone adapters, and access to 70+ Spotify playlists. For example, 25 headphones costs £140, 50 headphones costs £175, and 100 headphones costs £255.
What's the cheapest way to hire a silent disco?
Dry hire is the cheapest way to go - we send the kit, you sort the music. Starts at £100 for 5 headphones. The per-headphone cost drops sharply as numbers go up - £20 each at 5 headphones, £2.55 each at 100. To keep costs down, think about how many guests will actually have headphones on at once rather than your full guest count. People share and swap. Use our free Spotify playlists and you won't need a DJ either.
Can I hire a silent disco for one night?
Yes - and it's the most common type of hire we do. We deliver the equipment via DPD courier 3-4 days before your event, you use it for your party, and we collect the next working day. There's no hourly rate - whether your event is a 2-hour school disco or an all-night wedding reception, you pay one flat hire price from £100 and keep the equipment for the full period. Planning a multi-day hire or long term rental? Just let us know and we'll arrange a custom quote.
Do you deliver silent disco equipment near me?
Almost certainly. We deliver free via DPD to any UK mainland address. Whether you're in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Edinburgh, Cardiff, Bristol, Leeds, Glasgow, or anywhere in between, the price is exactly the same with no location surcharges. Based in South Wales, we've delivered over 8,000 hires to every corner of the UK since 2017. Equipment typically arrives 3-4 days before your event, and collection is free too - we arrange DPD pickup the next working day.
How expensive is a silent disco?
Silent disco hire is cheaper than most people expect. Hire prices start from just £100 for 5 headphones, with 50 headphones costing only £175 and 100 headphones at £255. That works out to as little as £2.55 per headphone for larger events. Unlike hiring a DJ or a live band (which can cost £300–£800+), a silent disco gives you 3 channels of music for a fraction of the cost of a DJ or band.
What is included in the silent disco hire cost?
Every hire package includes LED 3-channel headphones, 3 Bluetooth transmitters, all cables and phone adapters, 70+ free Spotify playlists, free DPD delivery and return collection, VAT, and 24/7 tech support.
How many headphones do I need for my event?
Depends on the event. House parties and small gatherings: 5-20. Birthdays and hen dos: 20-40. Weddings and corporate events: 50-100. School discos and large events: 100-150+. Don't go by total guest numbers - people pass headphones around, especially later in the night.
How does silent disco hire work?
Booking is straightforward. You choose how many headphones you need, get a quote, and confirm your booking. We deliver all the equipment free via DPD courier 3-4 days before your event - everything arrives fully charged and ready to use. At your event, plug your phone, laptop, or DJ equipment into the transmitters (via cable or Bluetooth), and music plays wirelessly through the headphones. Each headphone has 3 channels so guests can switch between different music. Afterwards, repack everything and we collect it the next working day. For more detail, see our step-by-step setup guide.
How long do silent discos usually last?
Most silent discos run 3-5 hours, though the headphones last 10+ hours so you're not limited. You pay one flat hire price and keep the kit for your full event - no hourly rate, no clock watching. We deliver 3-4 days before and collect afterwards.
How does delivery and collection work?
Free DPD delivery to any UK mainland address, typically 3-4 days before your event. Everything comes fully charged in padded boxes. After your event, repack and we'll arrange free collection the next working day. Both ways included in the price.
Where do you deliver silent disco equipment in England?
We deliver free via DPD to every part of England. This includes London, Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool, Leeds, Sheffield, Bristol, Brighton, Nottingham, Southampton, Newcastle, Cambridge, Oxford, York, Hull, Northampton, and all surrounding areas. We also cover Essex, Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Devon, Cornwall, Dorset, Somerset, Gloucestershire, Lincolnshire, Yorkshire and every other English county. There are no delivery surcharges - the price is the same wherever you are.
Do you deliver to Scotland and Wales?
Yes - we deliver free to all of mainland Scotland and Wales. In Scotland, we regularly deliver to Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen, Dundee, and everywhere in between. In Wales, we're based in South Wales and deliver across the whole country including Cardiff, Swansea, Newport, and North Wales. Free DPD delivery and collection is included in every hire price with no distance surcharges.
Do I need to pay a deposit for silent disco hire?
For most hires, no deposit is required - you pay the hire price upfront - that covers equipment, delivery, collection and VAT. For larger private hires (typically 70+ headphones), we may ask for a fully refundable equipment deposit to cover the value of the kit. Business and school bookings do not require a deposit. We always confirm any deposit details upfront when you get your quote.
Is silent disco hire cheaper than a DJ?
Yes, by quite a margin. 50 headphones is £175. A DJ typically runs £300-£800+. You get 3 music channels, pick your own playlists, and there's no speaker rig to set up or noise restrictions to worry about. We also offer DJ packages if you want both.
How long does the headphone battery last?
Our silent disco headphones arrive fully charged and the battery lasts 10 hours of continuous use - more than enough for most events. The headphones are rechargeable via USB, so if you need to top up the charge before your event, plug them in. For multi-day hires or longer events, headphone chargers are available at £6 per charger - each one charges 16 headphones at once.
What music can I play at a silent disco?
Anything you like. Phone, tablet, laptop or DJ gear connects straight to the transmitters via the included cables or Bluetooth. Every hire comes with 70+ Spotify playlists - party, wedding, kids, decades, chart hits. With 3 channels you can run 3 different music sources at once.
Can I hire more than 150 headphones?
Absolutely. For events requiring 150-500+ headphones, contact us for a custom quote. We regularly do festivals, university balls, corporate conferences and charity galas at that scale. We've delivered over 8,000 hires since 2017 and have experience with events of all sizes across the UK.
Do you offer karaoke, lighting, or DJ packages as well?
Yes. Lighting from £20 per light or £80 for the full package - lasers, strobes, UV and a smoke machine. Karaoke from £150 standalone, or from £250 bundled with silent disco. Or go for the Full Party Package from £295 - karaoke, lighting and silent disco all in one hire. We also offer professional DJ packages if you want a DJ to handle the music for you. All add-ons are delivered free with your headphones.
Can I hire headphone chargers for multi-day events?
Yes - £6 per charger, each one does 16 headphones at a time. Handy for festivals or anything running across multiple days. Just mention chargers when you get your quote and we'll add them to your delivery.

Pricing Factors

What Affects Silent Disco Rental Costs?

Here's what actually drives the price.

🎧 Number of Headphones

The main one. More headphones means a higher total, but the per-headphone rate drops the more you hire. 5 headphones works out at £20 each; 100 headphones is just £2.55 each.

📦 Delivery & Collection

Some suppliers charge £20+ for delivery. With us, free DPD delivery and return collection is included in every price - anywhere on the UK mainland.

🎛️ Dry Hire vs DJ Package

Dry hire - equipment only, you handle the music - is the cheapest option. DJ packages include a professional DJ and cost more but handle everything for you.

🛡️ Deposits & Hidden Costs

A lot of companies ask for a deposit of £60-£750 upfront. We don't charge one for most hires - you just pay the hire price and that's it. For larger private hires (70+ headphones), a refundable equipment deposit may apply.

💡 Extras & Add-Ons

Individual disco lights and smoke machine hire from £20 each. Full lighting package (3 lights + smoke machine) for £80. Karaoke machine hire from £150. Hire all three together in our Full Party Package from £295.

📅 Hire Duration

One flat price, no hourly rate. Planning a multi-day hire or long term rental? These are available on request. 🔋 Headphone chargers for multi-day use are £6 per charger - each charges 16 headphones at once.

🎧 Planning a Large Event? Let Our DJs Handle the Music

For weddings, festivals and corporate events - a DJ handles the music while you get on with the night.
