Overview: (All Ages) Come dance under the setting sun, at your own volume. Rainbow Rave - our second annual silent disco, designed for folks who want a fun, low-pressure, and sensory-friendly way to move and connect. Whether you're a big dancer, a gentle swayer, or a curious observer, this all-ages dance party is for you. At check-in, you’ll receive sanitized wireless headphones that let you dial into the DJ’s beats and adjust your own volume. From the outside, it’s a peaceful waterfront sanctuary. Inside your headphones? Pure Pride dance floor.
What this event is:
This is Nanaimo Pride's second annual silent disco, this year taking place at Colliery Dam Park, near the washroom building. Headphones are provided and worn throughout the event. There are no loudspeakers - all sound is experienced individually through the headphones. The space is open and flexible, with no formal program or performances. People may dance, sit, take breaks, or leave and return as they wish. Although we will have water and a few snacks available, there is no concession at this event. We suggest bringing your own drinks and snacks to keep you energized!
