Silent Discos at Woolwich Works this August

If your ideal summer evening involves live music, dancing and plenty of laughs, Woolwich Works has something a little different planned.

On Saturday 1 August, the South East London venue welcomes Silent Disco Global for a day of music-filled events that swap booming speakers for wireless headphones. The result? Hundreds of people dancing together while each listens to their own chosen soundtrack.

The day begins with a Family Silent Disco from 3pm, where children and grown-ups can jump between three music channels featuring Disney favourites, Marvel soundtracks, children's hits and songs that parents will happily sing along to. Later, from 7pm, the courtyard becomes a giant outdoor dance floor for adults. Three live DJs take control of separate channels, covering everything from chart-toppers and indie favourites to disco, R&B and nostalgic party anthems. Switching between them is as simple as pressing a button on your headphones, meaning every guest can shape their own night without ever leaving the dancefloor.

Silent Disco Global is no stranger to remarkable settings, having staged events at world-famous landmarks including the Natural History Museum and Marina Bay Sands. Their arrival at Woolwich Works adds another highlight to the venue's packed programme of outdoor summer events.

Expect colourful headphones and plenty of impromptu karaoke moments.

Roti King in Waterloo – Review

Updated: May 23, 2024

Bhangra beats, banging snacks, a free-flowing bar and a colourful graffiti-filled restaurant heralded Roti King’s arrival at Waterloo earlier this month. The third in the chain’s expansion following Euston and Battersea – not bad for a street food pop-up!

The chefs were fully on display in the open kitchen serving up a tasting menu of mini bites served buffet style by the amazing staff on the signature banana leaf platters. Roti King are famous for the amazing roti canai they serve with curries. It is incredible and has to be tasted to be believed.

We tried everything – particular favourites were the Roti Canai with Mutton Kari, a rich melt-in-your-mouth mutton curry. We enjoyed the Ayam Goreng Berempah Lolipop – it’s like a crispy chicken popcorn on a stick served on the bone with the spiciest sauce this side of the globe! Made our eyes water.

Both of the Mee Gorengs were so moreish we tried several portions of both the fish and vegan mushroom versions, and couldn’t decide which one we preferred. The Lamb Murtabak was also a taste sensation – a layered lamb omelet topped with pickled red onion. The flavours packed a punch! We will be back to try a few of their dishes, even just for the atmosphere!

Address: 97 Lower Marsh, Waterloo SE1 7AB
