Illenium

OVERVIEW

Overview
ADHOC designed a live drone show for ILLENIUM, extending the stage into the sky and syncing light, movement, and melody for a festival-scale audience.

Objective
Deliver a goosebump-moment that feels native to the artist’s set—tight musical sync, big silhouettes, and crowd-wide readability.

Approach
We scored flight choreography to key drops and transitions, integrating sky arcs, phoenix-style reveals, and volumetric “waves” that echo the show’s lighting language. Redundant safety and wind-tolerant patterns protected timing across show conditions.

Scale & Tech
~XXX drones • SMPTE/MIDI sync cues • custom color science to match stage fixtures • real-time show control

Result
A signature finale that traveled across social in seconds—elevating the tour’s production value and delivering a true stage-in-the-sky moment.
