## The story behind the lights

ECD celebrated the 25th anniversary and the brand’s momentous return to Las Vegas after a turbulent 2020 marred by an explosive and controversial postponement. We flew a custom show featuring three large drones with 600 drones above a crowd of 165.000 people to mark the weekend and EDC’s birthday bash. Thus, this EDC Las Vegas drone show was the perfect way to celebrate your birthday the 2021 way!

## Multiple Polychromatic Patterns

3D figures were created based on stages from previous years that transformed into multiple polychromatic patterns. The drones changed from the iconic Electronic Daisy Carnaval owl to a silhouette of the unmistakable cathedral stag. Also, viewers saw the silhouettes of two people embracing each other under a glittering heart, among other configurations. In this way, we utilized our 11 minutes of flight time to the maximum. Giving attendees a complete historic overview of 25 years of EDC, from which 10 years in Vegas.

## STORY IN THE SKIES FROM…

The Las Vegas Motor Speedway, about 15 miles (or 21 kilometers) from the Las Vegas strip. Las Vegas, also known as the City of Lights… our massive EDC Las Vegas drone show certainly strengthened that claim!
