Prepare for an unforgettable night at FLIGHT: Drone SkyShow and Night Markets, from 25 to 27 January at Commonwealth Place. This event marks a first for Canberra, where a swarm of 600 drones will illuminate the night sky, telling a series of mesmerising stories that reflect the soul of Australia.

Each evening from 8:30 pm to 10:30 pm, witness a trilogy of drone stories unfold, blending art, technology, and cultural narrative in a breathtaking display. This family-friendly event is more than just a drone show; it’s an awe-inspiring celebration of community.

In addition to the sky show, explore our vibrant night markets, from 5 pm each night. Enjoy a variety of multicultural cuisines, browse locally made arts and crafts, and engage with live performances from musicians and roving entertainers. Whether you’re a local or a visitor, this event promises a unique and inclusive experience for all ages.

Whether you want to immerse yourself in the crowd at Commonwealth Place or watch from a quieter spot along the central basin shoreline, there’s a perfect view for everyone. Join us in celebrating what it means to be part of our Australian community in 2024.
