City of Santa Paula 4th of July Drone Show on Thursday, July 4, 2024

The Rotary Club of Santa Paula Rotary is sponsoring this year’s first ever Fourth of July drone show in partnership with the City of Santa Paula. This innovative and environmentally conscious alternative will allow the community to celebrate this Fourth of July holiday with a spectacular visual experience with increased safety for both people and animals, since drones do not produce loud noises that can distress pets and wildlife. It will also reduce the risk of accidents and fire hazards providing a safer celebration for everyone.

The drone show, featuring 150 drones, promises to illuminate the sky with 12 to 15 minutes of stunning displays synchronized to music and will take place at Harding Park (1300 E. Harvard Blvd) between 9pm and 9:30pm on July 4th; however, spectators are welcome to start entering the fields around 5pm for an evening packed with family fun including lawn games, a jolly jump, a wagon train, delicious food trucks and unique vendors. Parking is limited to street options, so plan please ahead. Bring your lawn chairs and blankets to enjoy the show from our three grassy viewing areas. www.spcity.org
