New to The Big Reunion is the Silent Arena. A silent disco where everyone gets a set of wireless headphones to listen to the music and then we have two separate DJ's playing simultaneously on two separate channels. Silent Arena will be taking place in Jaks on Saturday afternoon from 2pm-8pm.

This year at The Big Reunion they are hosting their own battle of the bands at The Skyline arena from 3pm on the Saturday afternoon. There are be 3 hand picked, individual unsigned bands on stage battling it out for the panel of judges from the music industry. After the competition they will all be around to talk, get feedback and sign autographs. The three bands will be The Brays, What I Say Goes and The Headstart.
