We’re still buzzing with excitement after our drone show at the 2025 Chinchilla Melon Fest! What an incredible event it was. The Queensland Melon country got a taste of drone technology in the future. Our drones left the crowd in awe by painting the night sky with breathtaking melon-inspired patterns!
A Match Made in Melon Heaven
When the organisers of the Chinchilla Melon Festival approached us about adding some high-flying excitement to their event, we knew it was going to be something special.
This celebration of all things melon is already a huge attraction, drawing crowds from across Australia. With many entertaining activities like melon bash, melon bingo, live music, barefoot bowls, melon skiing, and golf (just to name a few), the festival is a true feast for the senses.
Our challenge? To make this event even more entertaining than it already is, levelling up the chinchilla entertainment!
Why Our Drone Show Knocked It Out of the Park
Let’s face it: We’ve all seen fireworks at least once in our lives. They’re great, but they’re old news. Our drone show was a highlight of the event entertainment, and here’s why:
- Customisation: Our drones created shapes and images that were uniquely “Chinchilla”.
- Precision: Each drone was controlled with millimetre precision, allowing for incredibly detailed and complex displays.
- Safety: We implement precision-engineered exclusion zones, conduct thorough pre-flight checks, and maintain continuous monitoring throughout each performance. These safety protocols make our shows safe for everyone.
- Reusability: Unlike fireworks, our drones can be used again and again, making them a more sustainable choice for events. The festival organisers and audience were excited about this eco-friendly aspect.
More Than Just a Show at Chinchilla Melon Fest
Our drone show had lasting positive effects on the 2025 Chinchilla Melon Festival. It proved to be a powerful marketing tool that literally took the festival to new heights.
It took their festival to new heights because it was “social media gold”. In other words, the reach was phenomenal. People shared photos and videos of our display far and wide.
The impressive showcase we created means that Chinchilla’s brand will remain in people’s minds long after the event ends.
Our drone show blended perfectly with the festival’s theme by mixing old traditions with new technology. We loved creating flying melon patterns in the sky that showed off Chinchillas’ fame as the Australian melon capital.
