Holiday World Introduces “Holidays in the Sky” in 2022

 

SANTA CLAUS, IN—A swarm of 300 LED-lit drones will take to the skies over Holiday World & Splashin’ Safari every night for a new show called “Holidays in the Sky,” from June 18 through July 31. The 15-minute show will celebrate Christmas, Thanksgiving, Halloween, and the Fourth of July and will conclude with a fireworks finale.


“This is an experience you truly have to see to believe,” says Fourth Generation Owner and Director of Entertainment & Special Events Lauren Crosby. “When the drones first take flight and the lights start to turn into a rotating Christmas tree or a waving American flag–it’s indescribable.”

“Holidays in the Sky,” sponsored by German American Bank, will be themed to the holiday sections of Holiday World and will feature animated light displays up to 700 feet wide. Leading up to the drone show, guests can join a DJ-led dance party in the German American Bank Party Plaza, in the Thanksgiving section.


“This is a custom show–you won’t be able to find anything like this in the world!” adds Crosby. “Holidays in the Sky” is going to be a huge hit with families, and we can’t wait for the spectacle to start!”


In addition to the drone and firework show, the park will feature other new entertainment throughout the summer with rotating acts including a stunt dog show, magician, juggler, ventriloquist, and more. “We are always looking for new ways for our Guests to experience our park and make memories with their families,” says Crosby. “With drones, fireworks, and a variety of shows, it’s going to be a great summer at Holiday World!”


Platinum Season Passholders are invited to a preview show on the night of June 17, 2022. More information about Holidays in the Sky here: HolidayWorld.com/droneshow/


Holiday World is set to open to the general public on May 14 with Splashin’ Safari opening on May 19. The park will begin hiring through virtual events March 4-6 and March 18-20. All interested are encouraged to apply at HolidayWorldJobs.com

Holiday World: A Place Full of Family Memories

Holiday World has meant a lot to me for many years, but I would say it truly became special to me back in 2006 when my mom first introduced me to the park. We visited in the spring that year, and after that first trip, we kept going back again and again throughout the season. What started as a visit quickly turned into something much bigger. It became a place filled with memories, excitement, and quality time with family. My very first season visiting Holiday World in 2006 I had already been a theme park and roller coaster fan before that, but Holiday World felt different from anything I had experienced before. There was just something special about it. From the rides to the atmosphere, it immediately stood out to me as a place that was not only exciting, but also welcoming and full of heart. A huge part of that came from experiencing it for the first time with my mom, who quickly turned me into a Holiday World fan for life. The person who gave me the Holiday World bug — my Mom. Some o...

  On June 29th, 2024 Kentucky Kingdom hosted participants during their first-ever Floral Frenzy 5K Run during their New Petal Palooza Event in Louisville, KY. This "Color Run" was so much fun! This one-of-a-kind event allowed participants to run throughout the Park as well as even outside the Park while being doused with colorful powders at different locations during he route. Below shows a map of the routes that participants could take. One being only 1.5 Miles (Kid's Fun Run), and the other being 3.1 Miles (Floral Frenzy 5K).  A decent amount of participants showed up to take on this new 5K that Kentucky Kingdom hosted. This was a great event for people of all ages as well. Everyone who participated seemed to really enjoy this special event. Participants were given light refreshments before and after the race, as well as a Floral Frenzy 5K T-Shirt and Completion Medal. We were also led in a stretch session before we took off and while we waited for the race to start the...
