Kinda slow around here, so I thought I’d share that Disneyland has been testing some sort of drone show off site for several nights in a row.

Those look really cool!

I agree. However I hope that all of this experimentation isn’t heading towards cutting down on fireworks. The way things have been going I wouldn’t be surprised

Drones are probably cheaper over time, and they solve some of the noise and pollution issues Disneyland fireworks have with the neighbors.

I agree. I have liked Disney's drone shows in Paris. They were a nice enhancement but not a replacement to fireworks

 

[only hope]

Maybe they will do drones during the week when they already mostly aren’t doing fireworks.

Drones would be good for AK

Much as I love fireworks (and I REALLY love fireworks) their days are numbered I fear. They're loud, smelly, bad for the environment, expensive (hello tariffs?), and dangerous. Drones aren't without their own issues, but the backlash against fireworks and bans that have been slowly rolling out over my lifetime make me wonder if they'll even be an annual thing for 4th of July in a few decades.
