Riesz polynomials are employed to give a sufficient condition for a non-abelian compact group G to have an infinite uniformly approximable Sidon set. This condition is satisfied if G admits infinitely many pairwise inequivalent continuous irreducible unitary representations of the same degree. Consequently a compact Lie group admits an infinite Sidon set if and only if it is not semi-simple.
