WHAT:
Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer, City Commissioners and the City of Orlando’s Downtown Development Board (DDB) invite the community to experience the one-night only holiday drone in downtown Orlando. Presented by AdventHealth, this show will feature a dazzling display of synchronized drones flying in formation to create beautiful holiday-themed designs in the night sky. Attendees will be able to sit back and watch the 15-minute light show from the comfort of their own blankets and lawn chairs. The show will be held on Saturday, December 21, with performances at 6:30 PM and 8:00 PM (both shows features the same program).
Attendees can make their trip even easier by taking advantage of SunRail’s limited Saturday service, sponsored by the DDB. One can ride SunRail for FREE on Saturday, December 21, to DTO and enjoy the holiday stroll on your way to Lake Eola Park.
All month long, DDB invites the community Downtown for the Holidays for family-friendly holiday events and activities for all ages to enjoy, furthering the DDB’s continued commitment to providing a wide variety of entertainment and festivities for everyone. Following the drone show, attendees are encouraged to check out the other holiday happenings around Lake Eola Park, including the Merry Market of vendors, a holiday light stroll, snowfall at Eola House, free train rides and visits with Santa Claus.
