Nightly drone shows will return to the Mile High City this holiday season.
Mile High Drone Shows will be staged beginning on Friday. The shows will be held nightly though Wednesday, Dec. 31.
The 11-minute shows will start at 7 p.m. and be visible for free, west of downtown Denver. According to Visit Denver, the best viewing areas will be from Tivoli Quad at Auraria Campus and Sculpture Park at the Denver Performing Arts Complex.
The shows, which were first staged in 2024, will feature 200 more drones this year for a total of 600, and have been expanded in size and height, reaching 500 feet in the air and 500-feet wide.
Denver-based Brightflight Drone Shows designed the show to feature holiday themed animations, Denver icons, winter moments and mountain activities.
