Papaya Stories’ Silent Disco City walk typically sees those involved hitting the streets for a fun + interactive outdoor experience. Things have all changed and amid the COVID-19 lockdown, the travelling silent disco is heading indoors.
Yana and the awesome team from Papaya Stories are helping us all make the most of this Lockdown time!
It’s time to introduce the Online Silent Disco HOME Edition – a FREE 20-25min virtual interactive music and dance session that will keep you moving & grooving at home via ZOOM. The event is designed to bring joy and endorphins to Kiwi homes.
The team from Papaya also have a calendar of other online events including dance classes, interactive shows and home parties to help you to get through the current lockdown with a smile on your face.
To see what’s going on, head to Papaya Stories web page and save their calendar! www.papayastories.com
Successful applicants will battle it out for some awesome prizes in front of our special guest judges and a live audience on Saturday 4th April 2020 at Te Manawa’s ‘We Are One’ Anniversary Day!
