How Our Shows Work

A simple, six-step process from idea to sky

We make it easy for you to dream big while we handle the logistics, tech, and safety.

  • 1. Discovery & creative alignment

    We start by understanding your vision, objectives, audience, and venue. Whether you want to wow investors or propose under the stars, we begin by listening.

  • 2. Concept development & flight choreography

    Our in-house design team creates a unique concept using 3D software and proprietary flight-mapping tools. You'll get a full preview before anything flies.

  • 3. Permits, compliance & location planning

    We manage all the behind-the-scenes work—FAA filings, insurance, site analysis, and communication with local officials to ensure the show runs smoothly and safely.

  • 4. On-site setup & rehearsal

    Our crew installs the launch infrastructure, runs detailed equipment checks, and conducts a dry run if needed. Safety protocols are checked and double-checked.

  • 5. Showtime

    Your show begins with pinpoint synchronization. Each drone moves in harmony with the others, painting the sky with color, movement, and meaning.

  • 6. Wrap-up & media delivery

    After the final light fades, we take care of teardown and cleanup. You'll also receive HD video footage and post-event support for social sharing or press materials.

How much does a drone light show cost?

While various factors can influence the cost of such a show, each of these is not an obstacle but rather a consideration that allows us to tailor the experience to your specific needs and desires.

Every drone light show is unique, and we’re here to help customize yours with the perfect number of drones to tell your story. From intimate displays to breathtaking spectacles, we design each show to captivate and inspire. Contact us today to bring your vision to life!

DRONES

The length of your drone show also factors into the cost, and it’s completely customizable to fit your vision and budget. Whether it’s a quick, stunning moment or a longer performance that tells a story in the sky, we’ll craft an unforgettable experience. Let’s design a show that captivates your audience and creates lasting memories!

Drone Show Having Place In A Wedding

Sometimes, the cost can also depend on the sophistication of the animation. 2D animations offer classic elegance, while 3D animations add depth and a dynamic, multi-dimensional experience. Whether you prefer timeless simplicity or immersive visuals, we’ll help you choose the perfect style to captivate your audience.

The lead time for FAA clearance, location permitting, and planning is an important part of creating your drone show. More preparation time allows for intricate designs and detailed rehearsals, ensuring every moment is perfectly choreographed. With clear communication and efficient planning, we can bring your vision to life—even on a tighter timeline—without compromising quality.
