Montgomery County Recreation

Description: A welcoming, sensory-friendly dance event designed especially for youth with disabilities (ages 5–21) and their siblings. This “silent disco” offers a flexible and comfortable way for kids to enjoy music—participants bring their own headphones and music players, allowing them to choose what they listen to and control the volume to match their sensory needs.

The environment is intentionally calm and supportive, giving kids the freedom to dance, move, or simply relax at their own pace. Gentle background music will also be available in the room for those who prefer a shared listening experience. The focus is on inclusion, comfort, and fun—making it a great social opportunity without the overwhelm of traditional loud events.
