glitterball
Rotating mirrored sphere
A glitterball is a mirrored sphere that rotates and scatters light around a room, creating moving spots of reflected light on walls and dancers.
Standard equipment in discos and dance clubs since the 1970s, it remains iconic of nightlife and celebration: The glitterball spun above the dance floor.
Also called a disco ball or mirror ball.
