About this event

What happens when cutting-edge drone technology meets the magic of a Florida summer night? Thursdaze at Baytowne Wharf is your answer. Every Thursday from May 28 through August 13, 2026, a fleet of illuminated drones takes to the sky at 9 PM above the Baytowne Lagoon in a choreographed aerial light spectacular unlike anything else on the Emerald Coast.

The show blends technology with coastal charm as drones trace patterns, shift formations, and light up the night sky โ€” all perfectly reflected in the lagoon below. It's a genuinely mesmerizing experience that wows first-timers and regulars alike, and there's not a bad seat in the house anywhere along the village waterfront.

Free and family-friendly, Thursdaze is a can't-miss Thursday night tradition for vacationers. Combine it with dinner at one of Baytowne's waterfront restaurants and a stroll through the village shops for a full evening out.

Best for: Families, tech enthusiasts, couples, all ages

What to expect: A 9 PM aerial drone light show above the Baytowne Lagoon, free admission, best viewed from the village waterfront promenade, every Thursday May 28 through August 13

Planning tip: Stake out a spot along the lagoon's edge by 8:45 PM for the best unobstructed views of the drone formations overhead.

Cost: Free admission
