Space Safari

About

Space Safari is an extraordinary drone light show coming to Windsor in April. Join us on 19 April 2025 at Royal Windsor Racecourse as we transform the night sky into a cinematic storytelling experience!

Choreographed using swarm technology and AI, the Space Safari team will deploy 600 drones to showcase the wanderlust stories of the first animals sent to space before mankind.

The event will feature fairground rides, VR gaming stalls, an immersive sound and light experience and VIP packages.

Space Safari is a first of its kind event which brings the beauty of drone light shows to a wider audience. Eco-friendly and a sustainable alternative to fireworks, this drone show is an awe-inspiring spectacle for the whole family.
