SAN FRANCISCO DRONE SHOWS
OAKLAND A’S STAR WARS DRONE SHOW
In 2021, we put on a spectacular drone show at an Oakland Athletics game in Oakland, California with a Star Wars theme. The drone show kept fans in their site right up until last out, as they were then invited to enter the field and watch a massive 250 drone show take to the skies and perform a series of Star Wars-themed animations. This San Francisco drone show was seen for miles around, and the feedback was incredible. As Major League Baseball learned, drone shows like this are a great complement for a sporting event.
LUCKY’S PLEASANTON DRONE SHOW
Lucky’s Supermarkets are synonymous with California, and they asked us to launch their new updated supermarket in Pleasanton, California, near San Francisco and Oakland. This San Francisco drone show featured animated elements of the company’s brand and food items dancing and performing in the sky. The whole neighborhood came out to watch this 200 drone show. The feedback we got was great, with neighbors running up afterwards to learn more about the performance and who we are. We hope to be back in that area soon for more San Francisco drone shows.
DUBLIN DRONE SHOW
Dublin, California is a town near San Francisco and Oakland. This town features the Splatter event each fall, drawing thousands to the wine, art, and music festival. The festival has entertainment options for everyone, and this past September, it featured the first of it’s kind San Francisco drone show. The 100 drone shows can be seen in the below video drawing large rounds of applause as it performed elements that related directly to the festival. We are already slated to be returning to perform again in 2022!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is a drone light show?
A drone light show is a swarm of drones that fly in a formation, directed by a ground station using precise RTK measurements to keep the drones in a constant location. Drone light show swarms can be programmed to be in excess of 1,000 drones, and perform such things as dances, light effects, animations, and much more.
How big is a drone light show?
Drone light shows take up the entire sky, going up to 400 feet and spreading out hundreds of feet, depending on the number of drones. Currently, hireuavpro.com has a capability up to 500 drones.
How safe is a drone light show?
When you work with us, you get the best drone light show hardware, drones, and software, making the performance incredibly safe. Our drone light shows are also fully-insured, and FAA waivers are in place.
When you take a risk and work with a company like “The Drone Light Show Company”, a known scam website, you take a big risk. Always do your research before moving forward with booking.
How long is a drone light show?
Drone light shows can last up to 15 minutes, but can also be run multiple times in a given evening.
How long to plan a drone light show?
Planning a drone light show can take as little as 2-3 weeks to plan as long as all FAA permits and waivers are in place.
What is the cost of a drone light show?
Drone light shows start at $10,000 USD, and go up from there based on the number of drones and how complex the drone light show animation you want for the drones to perform.
Be very wary of websites like “The Drone Light Show Company” advertising very low prices. This is in an attempt to scam you out of money.
SAN FRANCISCO DRONE SHOW OPTIONS
OUTDOOR DRONE LIGHT SHOW
Outdoor drone light shows rely upon technology that allows us to get a satellite connection to ensure our performance will stay in very tight formation. Outdoor drones are sturdy, capable of flying up to 25 minutes, and providing lights powerful enough to see from several miles away. Our outdoor drone light shows can be scaled up to as many as 500 drones, but any show over 200 drones will require an additional FAA waiver, so please allow 2-3 months for full approval. We utilize the most trusted drone show software and drones on the market, and have arrived at that after years of research and testing.
INDOOR DRONE LIGHT SHOW
Indoor drone light shows rely upon different technology. This technology is much newer, and since we are indoors we cannot use an RTK system for satellite connection. The process is a little bit different in development, so please allow 2-3 months. However, the good news is you will not need an FAA waiver to operate indoors. There may be other permits that are needed, however. Get in touch with us to start the process.
