Doğuş Elazığ drone show

On 27 July 2026 the eastern Turkish city of Elazığ hosted Doğuş Elazığ, a cultural and spiritual gathering held in honour of the legacy of a prominent twentieth-century Turkish scholar and educator. It drew more than 20 000 people.

750 DRONICO drones flew above the city’s central square. The programme was built around calligraphic compositions, symbols and imagery tied to the heritage the event is dedicated to.

Sky stories come in many forms. Some are about scale and spectacle. Others speak to memory, culture, and the values that matter to an entire community. Here the lights became part of a larger story: not just a spectacle over the city, but a way of speaking about what connects people and carries through generations.
