A spectacular family drone light show bringing storytelling to the night sky.
Space Safari Drone Light Show is coming to Newmarket Racecourse on Saturday 24th October 2026 for a spectacular evening of family entertainment and cinematic storytelling in the sky.
Watch as hundreds of synchronised LED drones transform the night sky into a giant canvas, creating mesmerising animals, characters and scenes from space. Choreographed to an immersive cinematic soundtrack and accompanied by epic-scale narration from BAFTA award-winning TV presenter Michaela Strachan, Space Safari takes audiences on an inspiring journey of bravery, adventure and discovery. Alongside the drone show finale, guests can enjoy a full afternoon and evening of entertainment including live music and entertainment, fairground rides, face painting and street food.
Space Safari is an eco-friendly and neurodiverse-friendly experience, creating large-scale visual spectacle without the loud explosive bangs, smoke or debris associated with traditional fireworks.
