What the Drone Light Show is

A new kind of Christmas night in the East Valley.

The Drone Light Show is new this year and is hosted on specific nights: December 18 through December 23. It is a custom holiday drone show, added on top of the walk-through light display that has become a tradition for families across the Valley.

On those nights you can do both in one evening. Walk through more than 2 million brilliant, synchronized LED lights, visit the kids zone, grab hot cocoa or a snack, and make the drone show part of the night. Drone Light Show nights are priced separately from regular light show nights.

How to plan your drone night

Make the most of the evening.

Arrive when the display opens at 6:00PM so you have time to walk the lights without rushing. Most families spend about an hour on the walking loop, and you are welcome to stay as long as you like. The route is flat and works with strollers and wagons.

Dress for a desert evening, since temperatures drop quickly after sunset. Closed shoes are a good idea. The show runs in light rain, and if weather closes the show we post it to our social channels first, so check there before you drive out.

Buy your tickets online before you leave. Drone nights are the newest part of the show, so you will want your date locked in.
