Saw last night's drone shows(dream big at 9pm and auusie icons at 10pm)
in Canberra. Also, saw NYE 2026 fireworks in Sydney (not near harbour).
But fireworks noise still frightened Pets and Wildlife! Darling Harbour,
Sydney has fireworks every sat night.
Emu and flying bird (not sulphur-crested cockatoo) made it into Aussie
Icons show. Insta Post here

Like 3d Printers, still depends on design.
But I would guess, if they got Sydney new year's eve gig. More action,
more drones and would need to extend aver more parts of Sydney. Show a
bit cheeky an did imitation of Sydney NYE fireworks.
Silent Drones, need soundtrack (for fireworks famously 1812 Overture by
Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and Handel: Music for the Royal Fireworks).
Show continues over next two nights. Live music but not an orchestra but
perhaps a Didgeridoo would be iconic). According to google 15 years ago
Katy Perry - Firework (Official Music Video)

Maybe "I come from a land down under"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XfR9iY5y94s for Australia Day drone show
soundtrack. Carbon footprint of drones would have to be less (not sure
how weather like fire hazard ratings or rain affect droneshows.
