Giant animal kingdom drone show, WILD, coming to Hedge End this winter
A large-scale outdoor spectacle, WILD: The Drone Light Show, is coming to the Utilita Bowl on Sunday 13th December, with hundreds of illuminated drones creating vivid depictions of beloved animals belonging to four wild worlds: desert, ocean, arctic, and jungle.
Tickets are now on sale, with super early bird tickets available until 31st July, where spectators can get the best seats and prices.
Created by Britain's Got Talent 2026 finalists Celestial and produced by experience company Yuup, WILD is touring venues across the UK in 2026. Combining cutting-edge drone technology with cinematic music, this immersive experience is designed for families, wildlife lovers and anyone who enjoys a spectacular night out.
Launched in 2025, the acclaimed show celebrating the animal kingdom has attracted more than 15,000 audience reviews with an average 4.9-star rating. The production follows a series of successful touring drone shows from Yuup and Celestial, including A Christmas Carol and Evolution. Since launching the UK's first ticketed touring drone light shows in 2023, the partnership has welcomed more than 200,000 visitors across the country.
“With WILD, we set out to capture the wonder of the natural world and put audiences at the heart of it,” said Dominic Mills, Founder of Yuup. “When we asked our audiences what they most wanted to see in a drone show, the answer was clear: the animal kingdom. That inspired a journey across deserts, oceans, arctic worlds and jungles, brought vividly to life in the night sky — from penguins to polar bears.”
Visitors will also be able to enjoy a pre-show event village featuring food, drinks and entertainment before the main performance begins after dark.
WILD arrives at the Utilita Bowl on Sunday, December 13 as part of a nationwide tour.. For all locations and dates, visit www.wilddroneshow.com.
