In addition to new Dodger Stadium lights being installed at the start of the 2023 season, the Los Angeles Dodgers also unveiled drone shows that have become part of their yearly promotional calendar.

“I don’t know if any of you have ever seen a drone show with hundreds of drones working in sequence, doing all kinds of shapes and effects, it’s the coolest thing ever,” Dodgers president and CEO Stan Kasten said when discussing the new addition.

“I love fireworks, you love fireworks, but you will really come to love the drone shows.”

Dodger Stadium drone shows are held on Friday nights, though they have not fully replaced fireworks. Drone light shows are better suited for the environment and also afford more flexibility in the event of a game running late because they are silent and won’t violate the noise ordinance.

Dodgers drone shows are themed and have often paid tribute to franchise icons. Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant also was recognized, and this year the Dodgers celebrated their 2024 World Series title.
