You can catch this mesmerizing show for free - on select days!
The administration has graciously opened up the skies for the public to enjoy free drone shows on October 6 and 7. However, for the drone extravaganzas scheduled on October 11 and 12, you'll need a pass to attend.

So, keep an eye out for it as you explore the city’s festive spirit.
This year’s decorations are particularly special.
