New Ottawa Event Showcases Drones as a Vibrant Alternative to Fireworks

Diwali celebrations in Ottawa took an innovative turn this year with a dazzling 250-drone light show by Illumin Drone Shows. Held on October 25 at the Capital Diwali Mela at Saint Elias Banquet Centre, the event brought together over 500 attendees who enjoyed a unique take on Diwali festivities. In response to Ottawa’s recent ban on fireworks, the celebration aimed to maintain the spirit of Diwali with a spectacular and environmentally conscious display.

The event featured culturally inspired drone formations that lit up the sky with symbols of prosperity, unity, and community.
