Dronisos, a leading drone light show specialist, has announced that its partnership with Dollywood, Tennessee will continue for a second year. The firm is celebrating the renewal of its Official Provider status.
A series of permanent drone shows will be delivered across the year as a result of the partnership. These shows will be fully managed by Dronisos. As the sole provider the firm will take responsibility for the entire project lifecycle, from choreography design to live show operations.
The contract includes permanent drone shows for the hugely popular summer festival, which is taking place 17 June – 6 August.
Seamless integration
Dronisos is considered to be the world leader in permanent installations due to its extensive experience as a theme park supplier. A specialised, seven-person strong crew will operate the shows on a daily basis alongside the Dollywood team. They will work discreetly from a secure area which has been designed with cutting-edge infrastructure to endure a variety of weather conditions.
Cyndi Mc Cormack, vice president of guest experience at Dollywood, says: “Dronisos truly understands our business, consistently demonstrating their ability to set up and operate with exceptional efficiency while seamlessly integrating with our park’s activities.”
“With their unwavering commitment to the highest security standards, they have proven to be an invaluable asset. From the talented choreographers to the diligent ground operators, their proactive and adaptable team has been a tremendous addition to our organization. We are delighted to have them on board.”
Awe-inspiring experience
Chance Smith, entertainment manager and producer at Dollywood, comments: “Last year, we astounded our guests with a nightly drone spectacle during the summer festival, which garnered resounding acclaim. Building on that success, we are eager to take it to the next level this year with an enhanced version of the Summer show. While I can’t reveal the specifics just yet, I can assure you that it will be an entirely unique experience that will leave audiences awe-inspired.”
Both Dronisos and Dollywood are known for creating innovative entertainment experiences. The continued partnership provides an opportunity for the two organisations to continue to push the boundaries of drone technology.
Dronisos recently renewed its status as an Official Technology Provider with Disney. The partnership was announced at the launch of the 30th Anniversary Grand Finale at Disneyland Paris. The first project in this new contract will be the Marvel nighttime drone show, Avengers: Power the Night.
