WHAT IS AFTERGLOW?
Reinventing the Night Sky with Sustainable Drone Light Displays
Afterglow Drone Shows is a drone show company based in Cornwall, but operating across the UK. Our team consists of Tom and Joe. We are a team of commercial drone pilots, based in Cornwall, pioneering the future of entertainment. As Cornwall’s first dedicated drone show company, we specialise in crafting stunning aerial displays for live events, festivals, weddings, visitor attractions, and brand marketing campaigns.
We design shapes and patterns in the sky, create a dance with lights and colours, all while interacting with the landscape. We can create a much more engaging and interactive story compared to traditional nighttime entertainment.
We have one of only a handful of UK drone swarm licenses, allowing us to fly up to 250 drones.

OUR PLANET-FIRST APPROACH
The impact of drone shows
We are here to offer a greener alternative to evening entertainment, which can release single-use chemicals and plastics into our seas, rivers and landscape. Our low-impact and low-noise drone light shows are powered by renewable energy, are fully reusable and do not disturb wildlife and domestic animals.
zero POLLUTION
There's no way around it. Fireworks displays create waste and CO2. Although plastic-free alternatives are available, fireworks spread cardboard and plastic across the environment and are carried by the wind. This waste needs to be collected and is usually undertaken once visitors have left.
INCLUSIVITY
Spare a thought for people in your local community this Bonfire Night, or New Year's Eve - the elderly, individuals with mental health issues, including PTSD and others with conditions such as epilepsy. Drone shows cater to a wide range of individuals and are much more inclusive to local communities.
Animal Disturbance
We all know that many of our domesticated four-legged friends are scared of loud bangs, but have you ever considered how this can affect birds, mammals and insects in the surrounding area?
Fireworks can distress wildlife, causing them to flee their nests or relocate to a different area [1].
NOBODY'S PERFECT
Of course, we are not saying that we are perfect and there is always more that we can do.
But we're working on it. Our drones are designed and built in the UK. Our batteries, along with our off-grid office, are powered using solar and wind power, generated from the Cornish sunshine, and we aim to recycle our batteries at the end of their long life cycle.
HOW MUCH DOES A DRONE SHOW COST?
BOOK A DRONE SHOW TODAY.
If you’re considering a drone light show for your next event, one of the first questions you’ll likely have is: “How much does a drone show cost?” The truth is, there’s no single price that fits every event. The cost of a drone show depends on a few key factors, including the number of drones, location, the complexity of the design, and the time of year.
We also offer pre-designed shows, created by us, to help keep costs down.
