Based in Salt Lake City, Utah, Open Sky blends cutting‑edge aviation technology with artistic storytelling to create immersive visual experiences for festivals, airshows, concerts, and major civic celebrations across the United States.
Founded in 2010, Open Sky has grown into one of the most experienced drone‑show operators in the country, performing for more than 5 million spectators and delivering hundreds of successful shows nationwide. Their productions are designed not only to entertain, but to create emotional, memorable moments that connect directly with the audience below.
The Technology
Precision‑Guided Drone Formations
Open Sky Pro performances utilize fleets ranging from 100 to over 500 synchronized drones, each equipped with high‑intensity LED lighting and guided by advanced GPS positioning systems. Every drone follows an individually programmed flight path, allowing the fleet to assemble massive, animated shapes, symbols, and motion sequences in three‑dimensional space.
Custom Aerial Artwork
Unlike generic light shows, Open Sky specializes in custom choreography, tailoring each performance to its event, location, and audience. From patriotic tributes and aviation‑themed imagery to branded designs and dynamic animations, no two Open Sky shows are ever the same.
Built for Challenging Environments
Open Sky Pro is known for operating in conditions that limit other drone providers. The team has successfully flown shows at altitudes above 7,000 feet and in cold temperatures below 15 degrees Fahrenheit, making their systems well‑suited for mountain and desert venues alike.
Every Open Sky Pro performance is conducted under FAA authorization, with comprehensive aviation liability insurance and strict safety protocols. The company’s specially trained Sky Crew includes pilots, co‑pilots, and ground technicians who manage launch, flight monitoring, and recovery in real time throughout each show.
Safety zones, contingency planning, and live system monitoring ensure that each performance meets the highest professional standards in modern aerial entertainment.
