ISE 2026 to Feature 600-Drone Performance

ISE 2026 will feature a 600-drone performance, a first for the event. This showcase will take place every evening at 6:30 p.m. from Feb. 3-5.
Produced by LANG AG, the performance will feature advanced drone choreography and will be accompanied by live musicians, an opera singer and a digital artist on the ISE South Access Welcome Screen.
“ISE is a highlight for us every year, but the 2026 edition will be something truly special. Together with the show organizers and our long-standing partner RealTime Department, we’re creating an activation at the South Access that showcases the full potential of drone shows,” said Marta Germes, director of event drones at LANG AG. “Creative design, digital signage and synchronized drone flights blend seamlessly to create an inspiring experience. For us, this project is a powerful statement for innovation and collaboration in live communication, and we’re thrilled to make it happen with exactly the right partners.”
Technology on display during the show includes real-time data processing, precision automation, advanced drone control systems and immersive display technology. Live visuals of the drone are synchronized with graphics on the ISE South Access Welcome Screen.
“For over 20 years, ISE has been dedicated to redefining the limits of imagination and achievement within our industry. This year, we are elevating that mission, literally, by bringing our vision to the skies for the very first time in our 22-year history. The ISE 2026 Drone Show is a testament to the innovation at the heart of our community, demonstrating the remarkable outcomes that arise when artistic creativity combines with technological innovation. We are delighted to present this extraordinary spectacle in Barcelona, inviting everyone to be part of an unforgettable week where the possibilities push beyond any ceiling,” said Mike Blackman, managing director of ISE.
