Atlanta Drone Light Shows

Atlanta’s skyline transforms when thousands of drones launch into the night sky. We know this firsthand—the Lil Baby concert show we executed featured 2,000 synchronized drones, making it the largest drone light show the Southeast has ever seen. Picture that scale: 2,000 individual aircraft, each with 2,200+ lumens of RGBW light, moving in perfect formation to music, visible across the city and broadcast live to millions. That’s the capability Atlanta has access to, and it’s what we build on for events of every size.

Atlanta’s Proven Drone Show History

Atlanta isn’t just a city where we’ve done shows—it’s a city where we’ve set records. The Lil Baby concert show with 2,000 drones was the largest drone light show in Southeast history. We executed it flawlessly: precise choreography, synchronized audio, thousands of individual drones under real-time control, zero incidents. That same team, that same operational excellence, is available for your event. We also executed a 200-drone show at Six Flags Over Georgia, integrating drone choreography with theme park operations and guest crowds. From intimate 100-drone brand activations to record-breaking 2,000-drone spectacles, we’ve proven our capability in Atlanta’s airspace and venue landscape.

This track record matters because it tells you what we can actually execute. We don’t talk about theoretical possibilities—we point to shows we’ve built in your market, with crews familiar with Atlanta venues, airspace, and weather patterns. That experience translates directly into reliability and quality for your event.

Why Atlanta Works for Drone Shows

Atlanta offers genuine advantages. The city has multiple venue types—downtown parking lots and rooftops, waterfront sites along the Chattahoochee, parks and open spaces in Piedmont and Grant Park, private estates in Buckhead and beyond. That venue diversity means a drone show fits almost any event type and location.

Airspace structure is manageable. We coordinate with Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson and local ATC; it’s routine coordination we do constantly. We hold FAA Part 107 Remote Pilot Certificates, Multi-UAS Waivers, and Night Operations Authorizations. Our team has done the permitting dance in Atlanta multiple times—we know the city authorities, the variance timelines, and the reliable approval pathways.

Weather windows are real but achievable. Late spring through early fall provides the most predictable conditions. Atlanta’s heat and humidity create interesting flight dynamics—we understand these and factor them into planning. Wind above 20 MPH sustained grounds our fleet; we’re honest about forecasts and won’t compromise show quality for scheduling.

Atlanta Event Types and Scales

Music Festivals and Concert Events: 300–2,000 drones. Atlanta has a thriving music scene. We’ve choreographed drone shows synced to live performances, studio recordings, and festival themes. Real-time millisecond-level audio sync with broadcast integration.

Corporate Launches and Brand Activations: 200–1,000 drones. Tech, entertainment, automotive, consumer brands launching in Atlanta market. Your logo, your narrative, synchronized choreography visible across the city.

Theme Park and Attraction Integration: 100–500 drones. We’ve worked at Six Flags Over Georgia and other entertainment venues. Drone shows integrate with ground-based entertainment, guest management, and park operations.

Sports and Entertainment Spectacles: 500–2,000 drones. Professional sports events, award shows, major entertainment moments. Atlanta has the teams and venues; we bring the drone capability.

Civic and Community Celebrations: 50–500 drones. City events, cultural festivals, neighborhood celebrations, fireworks replacements. Quieter and safer than pyrotechnics, fully recoverable equipment.

Real Estate and Property Activations: 100–500 drones. Development launches, property openings, upscale community events. A drone show over your property becomes media content and a memorable guest experience.

Atlanta Drone Show Pricing

We offer shows ranging from 100 to 5,000 drones, with pricing starting as low as $10,000. The final cost depends on drone count, animation complexity, location, and timing. Our team will put together a transparent, all-inclusive quote based on your event’s specific needs.

Included: design and choreography, FAA Multi-UAS and Night Operations waivers, crew (pilots, visual observers, support staff), real-time GPS telemetry and redundant safety systems, full production coordination, and comprehensive insurance. Venue rental, music licensing, and third-party permits are handled separately or with guidance from our team.

How Atlanta Shows Get Built

From initial concept through post-event delivery, here’s how we execute:

Consultation and Vision: You describe your event—venue, audience, timing, budget, brand message. We assess Atlanta airspace, venue logistics, weather windows, and feasibility.

Design and Choreography: Our team creates custom animations synchronized to your audio. You approve designs and request revisions until it’s perfect.

FAA Coordination and Permits: We handle all regulatory work—Part 107 authorizations, Multi-UAS waivers, night operations approval, city permits, airspace notifications. Fully managed by our team.

Venue and Logistics Planning: We assess launch zones, safety perimeters, power requirements, crew access, and backup scenarios. We inspect the site in person and plan contingencies.

Full Systems Rehearsal: Days before the event, we run a complete dress rehearsal—drone performance, software, audio sync, crew communications, backup systems all tested and verified.

Show Execution: Our three-person core operations team (Show Director, Lead Pilot, Pilot/Programmer) plus Visual Observers manage the show in real time. Every drone is GPS-tracked with live telemetry. Safety systems are redundant and continuously monitored.

Post-Event Delivery: Drone recovery and inspection, archival footage for media and promotional use, and your complete event documentation.

Our Fleet: Two Systems Built for Every Event

We operate two professional drone platforms, giving you the flexibility to match your event’s scale and budget.

The Kaiken is our lightweight, durable, and cost-effective system — built for events that want professional quality at an accessible price point. It’s reliable, proven, and delivers clean formations and vivid color across the night sky.

The Damoda V4 is our premium platform — powerful, bright at 2,200+ lumens RGBW, and equipped with cutting-edge safety features including parachute recovery, GPS-fenced flight boundaries, automatic return-to-home, and fail-safe landing. The Damoda V4 also comes with a free second launch the same night, giving your audience up to 20 minutes of aerial entertainment across two performances.

Both systems are operated by FAA Part 107 certified pilots under multi-UAS and night operations waivers, backed by $5 million in aviation and umbrella insurance.
