THE LUCAS MUSEUM OF NARRATIVE ART OPENING

The Story Keeper

Nova Sky Stories brought the magic of cinematic storytelling to the opening of the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art in Los Angeles, celebrating the extraordinary legacy of George Lucas and the power of visual storytelling. Through a spectacular aerial performance, hundreds of synchronised drones transformed the night sky into a canvas of light, bringing iconic imagery and cinematic inspiration to life. Combining cutting-edge drone technology with creative choreography, the show paid tribute to the worlds of imagination, art and film that have shaped generations. Set against the backdrop of the museum's striking architecture, the performance created a memorable moment for guests and audiences alike. This unique Sky Story demonstrated how drone technology can extend storytelling beyond traditional screens, transforming a landmark cultural opening into an immersive celebration of creativity and innovation.

HARRY POTTER GLOBAL TOUR

Wizarding World Drone Experience

Nova Sky Stories is thrilled to have delivered multiple Harry Potter drone shows across the globe. Featuring 1,200 drones, each performance brought the wizarding world’s most beloved moments to life in the night sky, accompanied by a live violinist performing the iconic film score. The show explored a myriad of iconic elements from the franchise, including beloved characters, high-paced Quidditch gameplay, and tense, cinematic scenes from the films.

Powered by Nova’s advanced flight integration technology, the performance seamlessly showed complex drone movements and transitions across extended sequences, creating a continuous visual narrative. This precision synchronisation enabled each scene to flow effortlessly into the next, immersing audiences in the magic of the wizarding world and transforming the night sky into an engaging cinematic experience.

HBO MAX LONDON 2026

Reimagining the London Skyline

To mark the much-anticipated launch of HBO Max in the UK and Ireland, SKYMAGIC took to the skies over the River Thames for one of London’s most ambitious drone spectacles to date. In a world-first technical feat, we deployed a fleet of 600 drones to interact directly with the London Eye. Rather than treating the landmark as a mere witness, our team utilized the 135-meter wheel as a central character in the story—at one point transforming the iconic structure into the ‘O’ of the HBO logo.

Over eight minutes, the London night sky became a canvas for the world’s most beloved stories. This production was the result of 286 design hours, featuring complex manoeuvres where drones took off and landed from a floating platform at the London Eye Pier. By blending cutting-edge autonomous technology with cinematic storytelling, for one night we gave London a front-row seat to the future of entertainment.

TROLL 2 NETFLIX

The Awakening of a Norse Legend

SKYMAGIC lit up Holmenkollen, Oslo for the premiere of Netflix’s Troll 2. Inspired by the record-breaking original film, the colossal Troll rose from the mountainside and roared into the valley toward onlookers below. The Troll 2 title then erupted before a snow-inspired burst formed the classic Netflix “N”. Delivered with Ocean Outdoor Norway and Netflix Nordics, the show quickly gained national coverage from outlets including TV2 and NTB. As Norway’s largest ever drone show, it was visible across Oslo and sparked widespread public curiosity.

SKYMAGIC led all aerial content capture in partnership with Upper Cut Productions Ltd - showcasing the Troll, which stood taller than Big Ben, in striking detail against the wintry Norwegian landscape.

VATICAN JUBILEE CONCERT

The Vatican Lights Up the World

To celebrate the Catholic Church’s Jubilee Year, Nova Sky Stories launched Europe’s largest drone display over St. Peter’s Square, uniting 250,000 live spectators and millions watching globally. Accompanied by Andrea Bocelli and Teddy Swims singing "Amazing Grace," alongside performances by Pharrell Williams, John Legend, and Jennifer Hudson, 3,000 drones illuminated the night sky. The light show recreated Michelangelo’s Creation of Adam and Pietà directly above the Basilica for the first time in history. The fleet also formed a glowing portrait of Pope Francis, halos crowning the architecture, 3D hearts, doves of peace, and the word "JOY."

By executing this massive aerial performance over a UNESCO World Heritage site, Nova demonstrated flawless precision, strict safety, and deep cultural sensitivity on a global stage.
