A large-scale outdoor spectacle, WILD: The Drone Light Show, is coming to Utilita Bowl on 13 December, with hundreds of illuminated drones creating vivid depictions of beloved animals belonging to four wild worlds: desert, ocean, arctic, and jungle.
Tickets go on general sale next Thursday, 9 July, but audiences can join the waitlist via the Fever app and wilddroneshow.com to be the first to hear when they’re available.
Created by Britain’s Got Talent 2026 finalists Celestial and produced by experience company Yuup, WILD is touring venues across the UK in 2026. Combining cutting-edge drone technology with cinematic music, this immersive experience is designed for families, wildlife lovers and anyone who enjoys a spectacular night out.
Launched in 2025, the acclaimed show celebrating the animal kingdom has attracted more than 15,000 audience reviews with an average 4.9-star rating. The production follows a series of successful touring drone shows from Yuup and Celestial, including A Christmas Carol and Evolution. Since launching the UK’s first ticketed touring drone light shows in 2023, the partnership has welcomed more than 200,000 visitors across the country.
“With WILD, we set out to capture the wonder of the natural world and put audiences at the heart of it,” said Dominic Mills, Founder of Yuup. “When we asked our audiences what they most wanted to see in a drone show, the answer was clear: the animal kingdom. That inspired a journey across deserts, oceans, arctic worlds and jungles, brought vividly to life in the night sky — from penguins to polar bears.”
Visitors will also be able to enjoy a pre-show event village featuring food, drinks and entertainment before the main performance begins after dark.
Unlike traditional fireworks displays, the show contains no loud bangs, making it a quieter experience for audiences while reducing disruption to pets and wildlife.
WILD arrives at Utilita Bowl on 13 December as part of a nationwide tour which also includes Worcester, with more cities to be announced soon. For all locations and dates, visit www.wilddroneshow.com.
