Planning a Drone Light Show
If you’re intrigued by drone light shows and want to bring one to your next event, here’s what you need to know:
1. Space and Setup
Drone shows require approximately 2,500 square feet for 100 drones before takeoff. Additionally, the audience needs to remain at least 400 feet away from the drones during the performance for safety reasons. Setting up 100 drones takes 1-2 hours, ensuring everything runs smoothly and safely.
2. Customizable Design
Drone shows are highly customizable, from logos to abstract shapes. You can even add special effects like music or narration, making your event spectacularly unique and tailored to your audience.
3. Safety and Compliance
Open Sky Productions prides itself on safety and legality. Equipped with FAA waivers, Part 107-certified pilots, and comprehensive aviation liability insurance, we ensure every show is as secure as it is dazzling.
4. Lead Time
While we can rush a show into production with just one week’s notice, more lead time helps us perfect complex designs and ensure all permits are in place for your location.
5. Duration and Pricing
Drone shows typically last 8-10 minutes, striking the perfect balance between engagement and wow factor. Pricing depends on factors like the number of drones and the complexity of designs, but our team is happy to give you a free quote. Planning your own event?

The Rise and Future of Drone Entertainment
Drone light shows are more than just a visually stunning experience—they represent a shift in how we celebrate and entertain. Drones are an eco-friendly alternative to traditional fireworks with reduced noise, zero harmful emissions, and no fire hazards. These performances also allow for unmatched storytelling opportunities, with every drone serving as a “pixel” in a massive digital screen floating in the night sky.
Looking ahead, advancements in AI and drone technology promise even greater possibilities. Imagine interactive shows where audience members can influence the patterns or personalized designs that break language barriers by forming universal symbols. The future of drone light shows is boundless, and Open Sky is leading the way.
