You can catch this mesmerizing show for free - on select days!
The administration has graciously opened up the skies for the public to enjoy free drone shows on October 6 and 7. However, for the drone extravaganzas scheduled on October 11 and 12, you'll need a pass to attend. These aren’t just any drone shows either - about 1,500 drones will be used in the displays, filling the night sky with breathtaking, synchronized patterns that are sure to leave everyone in awe.

So, keep an eye out for it as you explore the city’s festive spirit.
This year’s decorations are particularly special. Local professionals have worked tirelessly to decorate the city’s streets and iconic circles, all following the Chief Minister’s advice to make Mysuru dazzle like never before.
