The City of Ocala, in partnership with Marion County Board of County Commissioners and the Ocala/Marion County Visitors and Convention Bureau, will host ‘Patriotic Skies: A Fourth of July Drone Experience’ Thursday, July 4, 5 to 10 p.m. at Tuscawilla Park, 800 NE Sanchez Ave.

This inaugural event will feature a one-of-a-kind drone display, replacing traditional fireworks during the celebration. Citizens will be treated to a light show displaying patriotic images across the sky, with Tuscawilla Park serving as the backdrop. In addition to the drone show, guests will enjoy live entertainment, food trucks and a kids’ zone.

Drone light shows offer a more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional fireworks. Utilizing drones for light displays reduces noise, light pollution, and fire hazards associated with traditional fireworks, allowing for a more inclusive and sustainable approach to enjoy festivities.

Admission to this event is free and open to the public.

Drone show: 9:30 p.m.

Sponsorship opportunities are available. Additional event details will be available in the coming weeks.
