Lexington will feature its first city-sponsored drone light show this Friday at Jacobson Park, as part of the annual Friday Flicks summer outdoor movie series organized by Lexington Parks and Recreation. The highly anticipated event promises to be a blend of visual spectacle and family-friendly entertainment.
The drone light show will take place during the intermission of the evening’s movie, which is the animated film “Kung Fu Panda 4.” The feature presentation is scheduled to commence at 9 p.m., with the drone show set to light up the sky at approximately 10 p.m.
Mayor Linda Gorton expressed enthusiasm for the event, stating that the drone show is designed to enhance outdoor experiences for families across the community. The show aims to create an unforgettable experience, bringing together residents and visitors for an evening of family fun.
Limited accessible parking will be available for attendees at Jacobson Park. Upon arrival, guests will be directed by signs leading them toward the outdoor movie screen. An adjacent grass area has been designated for parking to accommodate the expected turnout for the event.
The inclusion of a drone light show reflects a growing trend seen in various locations throughout the country, where such displays have become increasingly popular. Lexington joins other communities in exploring creative uses for technology to elevate local celebrations. Notably, the University of Kentucky has successfully utilized drone light shows in past events, including a concert by Tyler Childers in April.
The drone show aims not only to captivate audiences with its visual displays but also to further enrich the outdoor experiences offered by local parks and recreational programs. Amber Luallen, superintendent of Cultural Arts & Events for Lexington Parks and Recreation, emphasized the innovative approach of incorporating drone technology into community events.
In addition to the artistic display that the drones will create, the natural backdrop of Jacobson Park will enhance the overall visual experience, making for a memorable outing. The event is part of the larger celebrations marking Lexington’s 250th anniversary, showcasing the city’s rich history and commitment to community engagement.
Organizers have prepared contingency plans in case of inclement weather. If it rains, the drone light show will be postponed to Saturday at 10 p.m., ensuring that all those interested have the opportunity to experience this state-of-the-art event.
As Lexington’s first city-sponsored drone light show approaches, residents can look forward to a night filled with laughter, entertainment, and captivating sights, all in celebration of the community’s milestone anniversary.
