Lightwaves is coming back to Salford Quays and they need your help to create an outdoor disco!

Stellar Projects are installing a large-scale community disco. The artwork is called Happy as the Day is Long, and for four nights they'll be hosting a silent disco under a huge, dazzling mirrorball.

A big part of the installation is the community playlist that will soundtrack the whole weekend — and that’s where you come in!

Here’s the link to add your tracks to the Salford Community Playlist:
