Hundreds of illuminated drones will take to the Melbourne skyline, performing intricate aerial choreography perfectly synced to the sounds of live classical music.
Picture this: as musicians smash out Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, the night sky transforms into a canvas of dynamic, moving art – blooming flowers, twinkling stars and graceful swans materializing above your head.
The whole experience happens under the warm glow of hundreds of candles, creating an atmosphere that’s equal parts techy futurism and old-world romance.
After smashing box offices across the US, Melbourne scores the Australian debut of this boundary-pushing spectacle. The event offers a fresh take on classical music appreciation, proving these centuries-old compositions still have the power to inspire innovation in 2025.
Savvy punters can join the waitlist from today, with exclusive pre-sale access before general tickets drop on April 16. Prices start from $65 – not bad for what’s essentially two shows in one: a classical concert plus a cutting-edge drone display that makes your average fireworks show look like a cheap sparkler.
The open-air event at Caulfield Racecourse offers the perfect venue for this sky-high performance, with enough space for both the aerial displays above and the string quartet’s earth-bound melodies below.
Whether you’re a classical music tragic, a tech enthusiast, or just someone looking for something genuinely different to do on a Friday night, DroneArt Show promises a sensory experience that’s impossible to replicate on any screen.
Those wanting the best seats in the house (or rather, under the sky) should jump on the waitlist pronto – if international runs are anything to go by, these tickets won’t hang around long.
