Frequently asked
How much does a drone show cost in Mexico?
It depends mainly on the number of drones, the complexity of the design and the venue. It is not quoted per isolated drone: the swarm is sized from the event brief.
Can pyrotechnics be used indoors?
Yes. Cold spark produces bright spark fountains at low temperature, with no sustained flame or excess smoke, so it works in halls, theaters and enclosed stages.
Which suits my event, drones or pyrotechnics?
Pyrotechnics if you want immediate impact, heat and sound; drones if you want to show your brand, a message or 3D figures with precision and in silence. For large events combining both usually works best.
