The magical drone show lights up Bordeaux again this summer
The sky of Bordeaux is preparing to don its coat of dazzling lights as the spectacular drone show returns to enchant audiences this summer.
An aerial dance of 500 drones over the Garonne
The 2023 edition of Bordeaux Wine Festival was marked by a major innovation: a magical ballet of 500 drones illuminating the Bordeaux sky. Replacing the traditional fireworks, this dazzling creation was brought to life by Dronisos, a renowned company in the field of drone shows, having already collaborated with giants such as Disneyland Paris, Puy du Fou, Netflix, and Marvel Studios.
A free and eco-friendly show
Dronisos repeats its feat by presenting its new show above the Garonne on Friday, June 28, and Saturday, June 29, 2024, from 11:00 PM to 11:30 PM, to officially launch the festival. This aerial choreography, accompanied by music, offers a festive and eco-responsible experience. Not only does it leave no residue behind, thus preserving the environment, but it also promotes the recycling of drone batteries, with each device having a lifespan of 400 flights.
Integration into Bordeaux Wine Festival’s rich program
This drone show fits perfectly into the diverse program of Bordeaux Wine Festival, which will take place from June 27 to June 30, 2024. In addition to the dazzling aerial ballet, festival-goers will have the opportunity to explore the long wine route of 1.2 km along the docks, bringing together 1,200 winegrowers and merchants, 80 wine appellations, 20 gourmet producers, as well as 80 partner restaurants and wine merchants. The previous edition attracted 40,000 wine enthusiasts, with tasting passes sold and TBM tickets offered to encourage eco-friendly transportation.
An event not to be missed
The next edition promises new highlights, notably with a tasting of Grands Crus Classés in 1855 open to the public, with limited spaces, at the Palais de la Bourse. With its blend of wine tradition and technological innovation, Bordeaux Wine Festival asserts itself as one of the must-attend events of the summer, offering visitors a unique sensory experience, between tastings of prestigious wines and breathtaking aerial shows.
