Sahuarita Stars & Stripes to Feature Drone and Fireworks Show
The annual Fourth of July Celebration, Sahuarita Stars & Stripes, will see a change to aerial entertainment this year. For the first time, the event will feature a combined drone and fireworks show with a seamless blend of cutting-edge drone choreography, mounted pyrotechnics, and ground-level pyrotechnic displays. The new age display promises a unique and unforgettable experience for all ages.
“We heard from our community members that we needed to rethink our plan for the aerial display, given the necessary change in location for this annual event,” said Mayor Tom Murphy. “While change is never easy, it is exciting to try out something like this that has the potential to be a truly unique experience for our residents while keeping our fire safety requirements in check.”
This year’s show will feature:
- Drone Display: A mesmerizing aerial performance that will light up the skies near the same location where the Fiesta Sahuarita Drone Show captivates audiences each April.
- Mounted Pyrotechnics: Dynamic firework displays mounted and released by the aerial drones.
- Ground Pyrotechnics: Bursts of color and light launched at the ground level from Anamax Park, designed to complement the drone choreography.
The updated format for this event was presented to and enthusiastically supported by the Sahuarita Town Council in the fall of 2024. This innovative approach ensures compliance with critical fire safety and fall-out zone requirements, addressing the challenges posed by the absence of a suitable location for a traditional firework-only show.
“We are excited to bring this modernized format to the community,” said Devin Stalder, Director of Parks & Recreation in Sahuarita. “This show embodies our commitment to safety, creativity, and providing memorable experiences for our residents and visitors.”
The Sahuarita Stars & Stripes Drone and Fireworks Show reflects the Town’s dedication to embracing new technologies while celebrating cherished traditions. We invite everyone to gather with friends and family to enjoy this spectacular event.
