Ras Al Khaimah marked the arrival of 2025 with a record-breaking celebration, earning two Guinness World Records for its spectacular drone and fireworks show. The Emirate secured titles for the ‘largest aerial display of a tree formed by multi-rotors/drones’ and the ‘largest aerial image of a seashell formed by multi-rotors/drones.’
Dubbed ‘Our Story in the Sky,’ the show highlighted Ras Al Khaimah’s natural and cultural heritage through a dazzling display featuring 1,400 drones, lasers, and synchronized fireworks. Over 100,000 spectators gathered to witness the event, which stretched across five kilometers of the Emirate’s waterfront.
The three-act performance paid homage to Ras Al Khaimah’s unique history and environment. Highlights included depictions of shifting sands, maritime traditions, and celestial imagery, culminating in a grand pyrotechnic finale.
In a Khaleej Times report, Guinness World Records confirmed the feats with strict verification standards, recognizing the 982-drone seashell display and the 1,400-drone tree formation as global milestones.
