- Where can I have a Diwali drone show?For a drone light show to be performed safely, it is vital to secure the area under the drones and maintain a 50m safety buffer from the audience. The Secure Area does not have to be clear of trees, but the Show Area must be level and free of obstructions. We require a total secure space of 175m x 130m.Not sure if a show fits at your venue? Submit your venue using the form below, and we will assess the available space, free of charge and with no obligation.
- Can I choose the music?Our stock Diwali show is pre-designed and set to a carefully selected soundtrack to enhance the visual experience.If you’d like a bespoke show designed to your own music, we’d love to help! Bespoke shows start at £29,500 and you can contact us to discuss creating a custom experience tailored just for you.
- Cancellation Policy
Our cancellation policy is designed to account for weather and unforeseen circumstances:
- Deposit (20%): Non-refundable.
- Onsite Fee (20%): Refundable if we cancel due to weather prior to arriving on site. If we set up onsite, the fee is non-refundable.
- Final Payment (60%): Refundable if the show is cancelled due to unforeseen or unexpected conditions after setup.
For detailed terms, refer to your booking agreement or contact us for clarification. We strive to be fair while ensuring every effort is made to deliver your show.
- What happens if the weather is bad?
Our drones are designed to fly in challenging conditions—up to 45 km/h winds and light rain, which is often enough to make guests uncomfortable outdoors.
We monitor the weather closely and will contact you a few days before the event if conditions look problematic. If we need to cancel before setting up, onsite fees are refundable. However, if weather worsens unexpectedly after setup, cancellation terms apply. For full terms, contact us to discuss your event.
- My venue doesn't allow drones, can you help?
Many venues have general bans on drones due to safety and disturbance concerns. However, we often work with venues to address these worries by clearly explaining our robust safety protocols and professional operations. This approach has enabled us to perform drone shows at locations that initially had restrictions, including sensitive heritage sites.
For instance, we successfully flew 100 drones at Scarborough Castle, an English Heritage property, by securing the necessary permissions and creating a spectacular display near a listed monument. Let’s explore what’s possible at your venue!
- What if my venue is near an airport?
Flying drones near airports or in “No Fly Zones” requires special authorisation, but it is possible with the right procedures and safety measures. At FlightShows, we have experience securing permission to fly near active runways by coordinating with airspace users and adhering to strict safety protocols
To learn more about flying drone shows near airports, check out our blog post: Can you fly drone shows near an airport?
Rest assured, we specialise in making the seemingly impossible possible! Send us the name of your venue and we will check it out for you, completely obligation-free.
