The Walmart Holiday Drone Light Show is coming to you
To keep the spirits up, Walmart decided to launch a Drone Light Show this year. The all-new magical experience called the “Walmart Holiday Drone Light Show,” will come to select communities across the country. But, for those not fortunate to live close, the drone show will be live-streamed as well.
Nearly 1,000 Intel drones power the Walmart Holiday Drone Light Show
The retail giant advertises the “Walmart Holiday Drone Light Show” as a “free and contactless experience that will bring your favorite holiday songs alive in a way you have never seen before.”
Almost 1,000 Intel drones will be creating 3D seasonal shapes and characters, like snowflakes, reindeer, snowmen, and holiday presents, choreographed to a soundtrack of classic and modern holiday favorites, from Frosty the Snowman by Bing Crosby to Run Run Rudolph by Kelly Clarkson.
“After a particularly tough year, we want to help families end the year looking up. We want customers and communities to enjoy a moment of rest, peace, and hope,” William White, chief marketing officer at Walmart, said. “From our summer movie drive-in to our Fall gameday and Halloween experiences, we've been finding ways to help families enjoy seasonal traditions in a year when they thought it might not be possible.”
From Dec. 4-20, the “Walmart Holiday Drone Light Show” will visit:
- Fri., Dec. 4: Kansas City, Kansas at Kansas Speedway

The joy and wonder of the “Walmart Holiday Drone Light Show” isn't limited to just these communities.
