A giant, moving dance party that takes place in cities around the world is coming to Boston.
Global Float is a movement that aims to “connect the world through one continuous night of dancing,” according to its website. To do this, Global Float hosts silent dance parties that “float” through a city, taking the dancers around town while they jam out to a playlist.
The dance party will kick off at the fountain by the Park Street T stop on Saturday, July 9 beginning at 9 p.m. According to the event’s Facebook page, you’ll want to be prompt, as once the dancing starts, the group will be on the move.
Each participating city has organizers who coordinate the events—Global Float has danced through cities across the globe, from San Francisco to Tokyo.
Organizers for Boston’s event will release a 90-minute playlist a few days before the party so all attendees can dance along to the same songs. The event is similar to silent discos, where everyone listens to music through headphones.
