Called “Secret Sunrise,” it is a bit of a craze that has caught on with adults.

Why not students of any age?

They call it “Secret” because nobody knows where the gathering is going to take place until the “last minute,” just to make it more fun.
 .
The group gathers outdoors (or any place really) just before sunrise (or any time really), and everyone is encouraged to wear a silly/goofy costume of some kind (to add to the fun and joyful mirth). :o)

Good high energy music is played into the ears via headphones so that the neighbors are not disturbed.

And dance away ’til the sun rises!

Or just dance away wherever you are and whenever you are!
