Drone shows in Kenosha
Kenosha has already put a drone show in its holiday kickoff: the 2025 tree lighting flew hundreds of drones over Kenosha Harbor.
Lightin' Up Kenosha
On the day after Thanksgiving, Veterans Memorial Park and Sixth Avenue fill with a market, fire pits, music and Santa before a tree with more than 1,000 bulbs is lit. In 2025 a drone show set to music flew over the harbor, produced by the Caledonia-based team we pass enquiries to.
The harbor
Kenosha Harbor gives a show open water and a downtown crowd within easy walking distance, and the streetcar runs free during the celebration.
Airspace
Kenosha Regional Airport, about four miles west, has a control tower open 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. The team checks the launch point and handles any approval.
Shows start at 150 drones; see typical budgets in the cost guide or run the show planner for Kenosha.
