A world-leading pioneer in jaw dropping light displays will help Southport’s twilight skies shine later this month in a 1st of its kind for the town. Not only will thousands of families be once again wowed by the British Musical Fireworks Championship, they will also be treated to an awesome drone light show.

Never before seen in Southport or Sefton, DroneSwarm – who are the UK’s leading aerial light display team – will dazzle ticket holders at Victoria Park with stunning drone and light displays to compliment a roster of the very best fireworks.

The 2-night event, often dubbed the “World Cup of Fireworks,” by fans of the annual showcase, will see 6 former champions go head-to-head in a spectacular battle for the ultimate crown.

Each display will combine precision pyrotechnics with synchronised musical scores, judged on creativity, technical execution, crowd impact, and musicality.

Cllr Marion Atkinson, Leader of Sefton Council, said:- “What a way to round up a brilliant summer of events, gigs and celebrations in our wonderful Borough. Tickets are selling out fast, especially with the addition of the cutting edge drone display which I cannot wait to see! We’re delighted to be working with DroneSwarm and their full-colour drones will deliver choreographed animations and patterns in perfect harmony with fireworks, offering a truly unforgettable double spectacle.”
