Live event drones in Florence
This page is for event producers, promoters and venues planning a live event in Florence. We fly concerts, festivals, parades, arena shows, races and brand activations, with drone feeds sent live to screens, the stream or a broadcast truck, plus fast edits for social. For homes, tourism and general aerials see our Florence, AL drone videographer page.
Shoals music and festivals
Our crew has flown live broadcast and FPV drone coverage at Ultra Music Festival in Miami. The Shoals' recording studios, music venues and festivals suit music videos, recaps and brand films, filmed with the owner's or organizer's approval. Alabama's ticketed event drone law, in effect since October 1, 2026, bars flights within 400 feet of or above a ticketed music, sports or performing arts event unless the organizer consents or another exemption applies, so we fly event work with the organizer's written consent. Flying directly over an open crowd is only allowed when the drone and the operation meet FAA rules for flying over people, so otherwise we keep flight paths over the stage, closed areas and open lanes. See Live drone feeds for video boards and Concert and festival FPV drones across the US.
Downtown, campus and venues
Downtown Florence, the University of North Alabama area and local businesses suit brand, recruiting and real estate films, filmed with the owner's approval. Many Alabama cities limit drone takeoff and landing on city property such as parks, so we launch from private property with the owner's approval or get the city's permission. Fully enclosed indoor flights are generally outside FAA airspace rules, so we fly one-take fly-throughs with the owner's approval; see indoor fly-through tours.
Dams, the Natchez Trace and airspace
Wilson Dam and other TVA dams are secured sites, so we stay off dam property and ask TVA before filming near it. The Natchez Trace Parkway west of Florence is National Park Service land, which bans drone launches without the superintendent's written approval. Northwest Alabama Regional Airport in Muscle Shoals has no control tower, so much of the Shoals is outside tower airspace, but we still check every site. We check every Florence location on the FAA sectional, B4UFLY and NOTAMs before quoting, and file LAANC or FAA authorization for any address that needs it. We confirm local permits, venue rules and airspace authorizations before every job.
