Rehearsals of Flight, the NCA’s amazing drone show, were held over Lake Burley Griffin on Wednesday night ahead of its three-night season, starting on Thursday.

Snapper ANDREW CAMPBELL was there to take these brilliant preview photos.

The Flight performance will present a trilogy of stories each night over three evenings, with night markets, food and drink vendors, musicians and live performers roving the national triangle.

It is at once aimed at inspiring Canberrans and, with its 600 drones, showing off the dazzling potential of technology.

Each 12-minute show will be played at intervals over the three nights in Commonwealth Place but will also be visible from Lake Burley Griffin and Mount Ainslie.

Flight: 2024 Drone Sky Show, Commonwealth Place, Lake Burley Griffin, 5pm-11pm, January 25-27, with drone shows at 8.30pm, 9.30pm and 10.30pm. Entry free.
