UNPRECEDENTED DRONE DISPLAY ILLUMINATES THE NIGHT SKY IN CHINA'S TECH-FORWARD METROPOLIS

Chongqing is one of China's largest cities and has emerged as its most futuristic metropolis over the last few years. The city is known for its cutting-edge skyscrapers, the largest monorail system in the world, and its breathtaking, world-record drone performances. The Guinness World Record for the Largest airborne image created by drones was recently broken with a light show with over 10,000 separate drones.


“Today, the target to beat was 10,197 drones. The final validated count was 11,787 drones, which successfully broke the existing record and set a new Guinness World Records title,” said Hou Ying, a Guinness World Records certification officer. Chongqing Broadcasting Media Group Co., Ltd. and Shenzhen DAMODA Intelligent Control Technology Co., Ltd. produced the program, which was named Charming Chongqing. DAMODA also held the previous record of 10,197 drones, which they accomplished in an October 2024 drone show above Shenzhen.

The June 16 show commemorated the 28th anniversary of Chongqing's founding as the fourth municipality in China. The program also sought to promote Chongqing as a cultural destination and highlight the city's advancements.


The show's narrative thread, which followed the topic of "nature, culture, life, and city," was divided into seven chapters. These included "City of Mountains and Rivers," "Camellias in Bloom," and "Affection for the Huangge Tree," all of which were significant aspects of Chongqing's past and changing character. Among the most exciting images displayed were a replica of the city's skyline, an upside-down flower raining shiny droplets, a mountainous landscape, and the city's name surrounded by fireworks.
