flash mob
A flash mob is a coordinated, planned gathering of people who come together unexpectedly in a public space to perform a rehearsed activity, such as dancing, singing, or a simple coordinated action. Typically organized through social media or messaging platforms, these events aim to surprise or entertain by creating a temporary, engaging spectacle for onlookers. Participants often disperse quickly afterwards, making the event transient. Flash mobs are used for entertainment, marketing, or social commentary, leveraging the element of surprise and the collective energy of participants to generate buzz or draw attention.
