Drone shows in Franklin
Franklin’s civic campus on Loomis Road, with City Hall, the library and Lions Legend Park, is where the city gathers.
Christmas parade and tree lighting
On the first Saturday in December the parade starts at Drexel Avenue and Schlueter Parkway and ends at City Hall, where Santa arrives and the tree is lit in the evening, with cookies and live music.
Lions Legend Park
The park hosts the four-day Independence Celebration with a carnival, bandshell music and July 4 fireworks at 9:30 p.m. That makes it the obvious candidate for a summer drone show too.
Airspace
Franklin is southwest of Mitchell International. The team checks whether the launch point sits in its controlled airspace.
Shows start at 150 drones; see typical budgets in the cost guide or run the show planner for Franklin.
