Mysuru Dasara ends with stunning drone show, sets Guinness World Record
Mysuru Dasara 2025 ended yesterday breaking guinness world record with 3000 drones for "largest aerial image of a mammal."
In a breathtaking incident, the 11-day-long Mysuru Dasara celebrations came to an end on Thursday in the palace city, leaving people amazed with a spectacular drone show.
Nearly 3,000 drones flew together in the night sky to create a giant tiger, breaking the Guinness World Record for the “largest aerial image of a mammal.”
The drone show also featured cultural symbols of Karnataka, famous icons and even Chandrayaan-3, India’s space mission, thrilling thousands of spectators who had gathered to watch the event.
People cheered and captured the dazzling display on their phones sharing videos that are now going viral on social media.
This year’s Dasara celebrations have been praised for their grandeur and creativity. The record-breaking drone performance has become the highlight of the festival, leaving a long-lasting impression on everyone who saw it and showing the city’s rich culture in a modern spectacular way.
One user commented, “Imagine if we could permanently have drones make holographic 3D advertisements in the sky like that running at night, give information to people, the temperature, the time, air quality, Modi’s realtime message to people etc. It would make fixed structures obsolete!”
While another added, “How do you manage to charge 3000 drones and keep track of their power levels? What do you do if/when the battery level falls below a threshold?”
