Drone show companies, 3D animators, event and marketing agencies with drone light shows in their portfolio, fireworks professionals and many others are invited to participate in the key online event dedicated to the development of the drone show industry.

The Сompetition aims to bring together the best representatives of the drone show industry and present their wonderful drone light shows and projects to the whole world! The international jury, which includes representatives of the media sphere, drone and fireworks industries, drone show choreography professionals and event market gurus will select the winners to award them with valuable prizes. Recognition of the Drone Show Global Community awaits the winners of the Competition, and the creators of the best 3D animations will get the opportunity to present their works at the International Drone Show Festival in 2023.

Participants need to submit their project videos to compete in one or more of five nominations: “Best drone show animation”, “Best drone show storytelling“, “Best drone show at the event”, “Best promotional drone show”, “Best integrated show simulation: Fireworks and Drones”. The application period is October 6 - November 20, 2022, with the winners to be announced in December, 2022. Each winner will receive a drone show operator kit (a set of items that an operator always needs for a comfortable process of organizing a drone show), also, the winners will be awarded special prizes, among which are 5 Kaiken drones, DJI Avata Fly Smart Combo, IPhone 14 Pro, GoPro HERO11 Black and accommodation at the International Drone Show Festival

“The 2nd International Drone Show Competition had 214 registrations from over 104 countries. Then, back in 2021, we expanded the concept of the Сompetition and invited not only the drone show choreographers, as in 2020, but also the drone show companies with different experience and the size of light drones fleets. The result was incredible! We decided to continue to expand the possibilities of the Competition for participants in 2022 as well” comments Alex Levandovskiy, head of Drone Show Software division at SPH Engineering.
