“Close Encounters of the Frome Kind” is an extraterrestrial extravaganza that aims to celebrate the colourful character and the quirk of Frome with its blend of innovative drone light show technology, UFO intrigue and a touch of celestial magic.
The show is designed and delivered by local company Celestial who, since their last Frome display (the first with a live audience), has gone from strength to strength delivering super-premium shows all over the world for some of the biggest events, including Eurovision, London New Year’s Eve and many more. The company, based in Frome, specialises in aerial storytelling, performed by hundreds of brightly coloured drone lights in the night sky.
As a prelude to the show, there will be activities including face painting and attractions, as well as an excellent selection of local food concessions. All of which will help set the atmospheric scene for the main act, an exciting showcase drone display.
The event is free to attend with a suggested donation amount of £5 per person. Donations will distributed by Frome Rotary to support Frome-based charities. The last Celestial drone show for Frome resulted in the greatest giving spree Frome Rotary had ever had. Please give generously if you can to help us raise even more this year.
