DroneArt Show lands in Huntington Beach on November 28th and 29th
After mesmerizing audiences in cities across the globe, Huntington Beach is the latest city to receive DroneArt Show. The renowned show is coming to Huntington Beach for a two-night limited engagement on November 28th and 29th at, promising to transport audiences to a world of musical and visual wonders in a stunning open-air spectacle. Tickets are now on sale via https://thedroneartshow.com/huntington-beach/ and the Fever app.
DroneArt Show is a sensorial experience, an ephemeral work that fuses classical music with the most avant-garde technology. In an unrepeatable presentation, the sky becomes a moving canvas where live music comes to life like never before. While a string quartet plays Vivaldi’s Four Seasons over 500 illuminated drones will move to the rhythm of each note, forming three-dimensional figures in constant transformation to illustrate the emotion of the music and make the night unforgettable. Each movement is perfectly choreographed over 65 minutes of flight time so that sound and light intertwine in harmony. This one-of-a-kind show is a celebration of the sublime: a fusion of art, innovation, and emotion that will leave a lasting impression on audiences.
DroneArt Show is presented by Fever, the world's leading live entertainment discovery platform, known for popular experiences such as Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience and their Candlelight Concerts series, in collaboration with Nova Sky Stories , a global pioneer in drone technology.
