A new golf attraction at The Strat is set to launch the first ongoing drone show in Las Vegas. Yes, we just paraphrased the headline. We are very busy and can\u2019t spend our entire day trying to come up with synonyms and drone puns.<\/p>\n

Atomic Golf\u2019s drone show takes flight on July 18, 2024, and will happen every Thursday at 8:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m.<\/p>\n

Until somebody puts an eye out.<\/p>\n

Such a relief to see drones not being used in a battle zone. Unless one considers the neighborhood around Strat a battle zone. Awkward.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

We love us some drones, and we\u2019ve been screaming for years Las Vegas needs to get into the mix with bigger, better and resident drone displays.<\/p>\n

Asia is straight-up kicking our collective asses, dronewise.<\/p>\n

The inevitability of drone shows in Las Vegas was slowed when Caesars Palace had a drone show in 2018 and a guest was hit in the face by a malfunctioning drone. You thought we were kidding about putting an eye out? We personally own drones and have nearly beheaded actual humans, including ourself, due to drone malfunctions.<\/p>\n

Haven’t seen this reported, but unconfirmed rumor is there was supposed to be a 10-minute drone show before Saturday’s fireworks in Vegas. First drone up reportedly crashed and hit a woman in the crowd, music continued to play despite grounding of drones, to bafflement of crowd.<\/p>\n

Since that unfortunate and scary incident, there have been one-off drone shows in Las Vegas, but nothing on a regular basis.<\/p>\n

Atomic Golf\u2019s new drone show, in conjunction with a company called Skyworx Drone Shows, will feature 400 drones when it debuts.<\/p>\n

Future shows could have as few as 200 or as many as 1,000 drones, based upon drone availability.<\/p>\n

Each drone show will be 10-12 minutes long, and the shows will be different each week.<\/p>\n

Atomic Golf shared some possible drone formations on LinkedIn<\/a>, where most effective digital marketing is done, we said sarcastically.<\/p>\n

Drone shows are like 3-D Lite-Brites. Bonus points for anything Vegas-themed.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

We love this idea and can\u2019t wait to see the show, especially with free attractions in Las Vegas becoming increasingly impossible to find. The Mirage volcano is the latest casualty in the disappearance of free attractions, following in the footsteps of the Sirens of TI and Show in the Sky at Rio.<\/p>\n

A drone show is great not only for Atomic Golf, but also turns more eyeballs toward The Strat, currently undergoing a bit of a shake-up in its ranks.<\/p>\n

A.I. didn\u2019t exactly nail the drone aspect, but this is how Strat should be investing! In related news, Strat is turning its former buffet space into a convention center, so there\u2019s that.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Strat is actually a little touchy about drones, as several have hit the tower. A few years ago, the casino installed drone detection technology.<\/p>\n
