Sydney's Silent Disco Ice Skating Festival Returns for Vivid
The frostiest, quietest event in the Vivid lineup is back.
Grab your leg warmers, throw on some lycra and get your skates on, literally, at the frostiest, quietest event in the Vivid lineup. Yes, the Silent Disco Ice Skating Festival is back for another round of peaceful gliding fun. If you've always wanted to relive Blades of Glory, here's your chance.
From May 26 to June 9, a purpose-built ice rink will transform Chippendale's Central Park Mall. Take to the floor, put on your headphones and skate along to live DJ sets, with Bobby Gray/BBG — aka one half of dance music duo SVSSY — and DJ Urby among those spinning tracks.
The silent disco fun kicks off at 4pm daily; however anyone just keen for some ice time, sans tunes, can head along from 10am. Regardless of the time of day, capacity is limited to 45 people at a time, with sessions running for 30 minutes starting on the hour, every hour.
Sounds cool as ice, doesn't it? Or even better, really, given that Cool As Ice is actually the name of a Vanilla Ice-starring '90s rom-com that somehow doesn't involve ice skating. Throw in the fact that it's all free, and it's a winter wonderland indeed.
The Vivid Silent Disco Ice Skating Festival runs from 4pm daily between May 26 and June 9. General ice skating is available from 10am. For more information, check out the event website.
