An estimated 50,000 to 100,000 people of all ages, races and backgrounds descended on the Pier district to catch a glimpse of the drone light show July 31. Many more watched by boat. They were all there to witness 300 drones affixed with LED lights synchronously dance over Tampa Bay, in between the Pier and Spa Beach.
“First, my thanks to Duke Energy for sponsoring the St. Pete Pier's one-year anniversary drone show," Mayor Rick Kriseman said to the Catalyst. “It was wonderful to see so many people at the Pier and along St. Pete’s waterfront to celebrate one of our city’s best places to be.”
