Disco Ball Wristband from Wicked Uncle – Light Up the Room (Review)

*PR sample

If you’ve ever had a child who turns the living room into a stage the second a song comes on (or you’ve hosted a birthday party and thought, this needs more sparkle), you’re going to love this.

We’ve been trying out the Disco Ball Wristband from Wicked Uncle, and it’s one of those brilliantly simple gadgets that instantly adds a bit of fun to… well, pretty much anything. It’s a light-up disco ball you wear on your wrist, and it creates a colourful little light show wherever you go.

A mini disco… on your wrist!!

The first thing I noticed is how compact it is. The disco ball itself measures around 5cm, so it’s small enough for kids to wear comfortably, but still big enough to make an impact when the lights go down.

It comes on an adjustable, smooth silicone strap, so it’s easy to pop on and off (and it feels comfy rather than scratchy or plasticky). It’s the kind of thing kids will happily wear while they’re dancing around the kitchen, running around the garden, or showing it off to absolutely everyone.

What does it do?

This little wristband doesn’t just glow. It properly puts on a show!!

The dome casts a pattern of colourful light, using red, green and blue flashing LEDs. And there are three different settings to play with, so it doesn’t feel like a one-trick toy.

One of the most fun features is the beat-activated mode, which means it can pulse along to music. If you’ve got a child who loves sensory-style toys or who enjoys anything interactive, this is such a satisfying little detail.

Perfect for parties (and everyday fun)

Wicked Uncle describes it as “perfect for parties” and I completely agree. It’s ideal for:

  • Birthday parties
  • Sleepovers
  • Family discos in the lounge
  • Going to “night gardens” in the Winter
  • Dressing up
  • A fun “something extra” for a holiday suitcase

But honestly? It’s also great for those random moments when you need to lift the mood. You know the ones: rainy afternoons, post-school grumps, or when you’re trying to keep everyone entertained while you make dinner.

Rechargeable (yes, please)

One of my favourite things as a parent: it’s rechargeable via USB.

No hunting for batteries, no “Mum, it’s not working!” five minutes before going out, and no extra cost every time the novelty kicks back in. Just charge it up, and it’s ready for the next mini disco.

Why I think it makes a great gift

This is one of those gifts that feels a bit different. It’s not huge, but it’s exciting, and it’s the kind of thing kids will want to use straight away.

It’s also a lovely option if you’re looking for:

  • A small but fun birthday present
  • A stocking filler with a bit of wow-factor
  • A party bag upgrade
  • A gift for kids who love gadgets and lights

If you’ve got a child who loves music, dancing, dressing up, or anything that lights up and flashes, this is a really fun pick.

  1. I would turn my kitchen into a dance floor while cooking, and blast “Stayin’ Alive” by the Bee Gees.

  2. I’d host it in my living room with the curtains drawn and kick things off with “Dancing Queen” by ABBA

  3. I’d throw a mini disco on a balcony overlooking the ocean and play “Levitating” first to set the mood.

  4. In the kitchen while cooking and baking .I would have the BeeGees Michael Jackson and Queen hits playing. Awesome giveaway

  5. And if I were to throw a disco anywhere… probably St Pancras International Station. Lovely architecture. First song… ‘No Idea’ by Don Toliver

  6. I would have a disco in the garden and the first song would be Sunchyme by Dario G to get everyone in the party mood!
