Creation of show design, colours and effects with 3D visualisation – matched to music and timing for a coherent overall experience.
Light art above Europe's largest high-alpine meadow
The Seiser Alm – Alpe di Siusi – is Europe’s largest high-alpine meadow: a plateau of overwhelming vastness at the foot of the Schlern and Langkofel, with Kastelruth, Seis and Völs as charming holiday villages below. Guests come for Alpine festivals, the legendary Kastelruther Spatzen festival, winter sports and mountain summers. A drone show on the Seiser Alm uses this natural stage like no other medium: glowing formations in the wide night sky, framed by the silhouettes of the Dolomites.

Whether cattle drive, ski opening, music festival or hotel anniversary: tens of thousands of guests celebrate on the Seiser Alm and in Kastelruth every year – many of them regulars from the German-speaking world. A drone show gives these traditions a modern highlight while staying in harmony with nature: the quiet, emission-free fireworks alternative protects grazing animals, wildlife and the sensitive high plateau of the Schlern-Rosengarten nature park.
The wide plateau offers sight lines no valley can match – shows can be experienced from mountain stations, huts and village centres alike. The village square of Kastelruth with its baroque church tower is the proven stage of the great festivals. Showmatrix plans choreography, wind windows and logistics with mountain experience and handles all permits with ENAC, the municipalities and the nature park authority.
A drone show is an event where a group of drones with synchronised lights light up the sky at night. Unlike traditional fireworks displays that use pyrotechnic effects, a drone show utilises LED lights that are precisely programmed to create impressive light patterns and choreography.
Drone shows offer an environmentally friendly and safe alternative to fireworks. They produce no smoke, cause no noise and leave no harmful residue. They also minimise the risk of accidents and fires, resulting in a safer event environment.
Drone shows on the Seiser Alm are ideal for a wide range of events – for example the Kastelruther Spatzen festival, Alpine festivals and cattle drives, ski openings, hotel anniversaries and New Year’s Eve in the mountains. Weddings, anniversaries and New Year’s Eve celebrations also become unforgettable moments with a light show in the night sky.
Basically, it can be said that the more drones there are, the more diverse the possibilities for visualisation become. From our expertise, we can say that beautiful lighting effects and formations are possible from a number of 100 drones and the multi-dimensional possibilities can conjure up breathtaking effects and images in the sky with 200 – 2000 drones. The size of the drone package is of course always dependent on the customer’s wishes, requirements and budget.
Drone shows are significantly safer as the drones used are equipped with advanced safety precautions such as redundancy systems and emergency protocols. Care is also taken to define safety zones for the audience and staff.
The preparation time for a drone show depends on the scope of the show. As a rule, the planning and coordination takes 2-3 weeks to ensure that everything runs smoothly. However, our team is very experienced and able to realise requests at short notice.
Yes. A drone show on the Seiser Alm requires aviation permits – the responsible body is ENAC, the Italian civil aviation authority. Depending on the venue, coordination with the municipality, public order office and other local bodies may also be required. The experienced Showmatrix team handles the entire permit process for you – from application to clearance on the day of the event.
Yes, drone shows can integrate customised patterns, lettering, logos and messages into the choreography. This enables a customised and unique performance that is specifically tailored to the client’s needs.
The cost of a drone show on the Seiser Alm depends on the number of drones, the duration of the show and the complexity of the choreography – but is generally significantly lower than a comparable fireworks display. We will be happy to prepare a customised quote for your event.
