Mumbai is all set to witness a first-of-its-kind visual spectacle as Maharashtra gears up for a grand 2000-drone show on the auspicious occasion of Ram Navami. Organised by the state’s cultural department, the event will take place at Azad Maidan on March 26 and 27, 2026, from 7 PM onwards.
The large-scale drone display will illuminate the night sky with stunning formations celebrating Maharashtra’s rich culture, history and traditions. From iconic symbols to storytelling visuals, the show promises to be a blend of technology and heritage, making it a must-watch for Mumbaikars.
The announcement comes shortly after a similar drone show held near Marine Drive during Gudi Padwa went viral. The visuals featured a beautifully crafted gudi formation and even a striking depiction of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, leaving viewers in awe.
