DroneArt Show Harry Potter: magic takes to the skies in Antwerp
If you’re looking for a spectacular family outing this summer, DroneArt Harry Potter Show is an idea to keep in mind. The show combines 1,200 luminous drones, live music and scenes inspired by the Harry Potter universe, in a great open-air experience organized at the Bosuilstadion, in Antwerp.
It is an outing designed for Harry Potter fans, but also for families who love visual experiences and nighttime shows. The drones draw iconic characters, symbols and moments from the movies in the sky, synchronized with the music.
DroneArt Show Harry Potter in 5 points
- A drone show in the middle of the air: 1,200 luminous drones orbit through the sky to form scenes and characters inspired by the Harry Potter universe.
- A very cinematic atmosphere : the music of the films accompanies the show and gives the show a real immersive side.
- An evening outing: the show starts at 10:30 p.m., with doors opening at 8:30 p.m. It is therefore an activity rather suitable for children who are able to stay up late.
- A family experience : the event is open to all ages, with a real magical dimension for children, pre-teens, teenagers and parents who are fans of the saga.
- An idea for a getaway from Brussels : the show takes place in Antwerp, making it a special night out, rather than a last-minute activity.
Why we like it
- For the spectacular side : The 1,200 luminous drones in the sky create a real visual experience, very different from a classic show.
- For the Harry Potter universe : Children, teenagers and parents who are fans find the symbols and atmosphere of the films in an original format.
- For the summer outing : The show is experienced outdoors, in the evening, with this special event aspect that can really mark the children.
The team’s opinion
DroneArt Show Harry Potter, an ideal outing for a summer evening. The show plays on the element of surprise, music and the visual power of the drones to recreate an immediately recognizable atmosphere, between a great light show and a magical interlude under the Antwerp sky.
It’s a short, spectacular and very visual experience, with that rare event that we like to keep in mind after the holidays.
