Porsche Singapore
Drone Light Show
— Marina Bay Sands
For Porsche's exclusive Singapore product launch at Marina Bay Sands, MIRS Drone Show deployed 600 drones above the Marina Bay waterfront in a performance synchronised to the indoor reveal. A Porsche crest assembled in the night sky as fireworks ignited below. The outdoor aerial show and the indoor programme ran as one unified moment for guests inside the MBS venue.
Mission Objective
The Brief
Porsche Singapore required a drone show capable of elevating a private product launch into a moment with the visual scale of a public spectacle. The brief called for a performance that could be experienced from inside the Marina Bay Sands venue, visible through the event space and synced precisely to the indoor reveal, while delivering aerial formations that communicated the brand's identity to an audience of senior guests and media.
More Than Marketing
Product launches for premium automotive brands increasingly require an outdoor experiential component to extend the physical reveal beyond the confines of an event floor. Marina Bay Sands provides one of the most recognisable backdrops in Southeast Asia for such moments, but the adjacent flight corridors and venue constraints demand precise planning. MIRS Drone Show coordinated CAA Singapore airspace authorisation, MBS venue alignment, and a show design that made 600 drones readable as brand formations from both ground level and the indoor event perspective.
Mission Assets
Creative Performance Design
Designing for a City Skyline
The outdoor drone airspace sits directly adjacent to Changi-approach flight corridors, making CAA Singapore authorisation the first and most time-sensitive dependency for any Marina Bay aerial performance. The indoor reveal timeline was fixed and non-negotiable, which meant the outdoor drone sequence had to be planned, rehearsed, and ready to trigger on an exact cue with no margin for delay. Night-sky visibility in the Marina Bay district is reduced by dense hotel and casino ambient lighting, so formation geometry was designed with higher inter-drone spacing to maintain legibility from ground level and from broadcast camera positions on the MBS event floor.
Narrative Arc & Camera Strategy
The sequence opened with ambient formation flying above the Marina Bay Sands waterfront, building anticipation for guests watching from inside the venue. As the indoor programme reached the product reveal moment, a full lotus flower formation expanded across the Singapore skyline, a deliberate reference to the Southeast Asian context of the launch. The centrepiece followed immediately: a Porsche crest assembled in 600 drones above the waterfront, held in formation as fireworks launched from the Marina Bay staging area. The combined effect placed brand identity in the sky above Singapore's most recognised landmark, closing the launch on a moment guests had not seen before at a regional automotive event.
- Porsche crest formation A Porsche crest formed in 600 drones above Marina Bay as fireworks ignited simultaneously. It was the defining moment of the night, timed precisely to the indoor product reveal on the Marina Bay Sands stage.
- Lotus flower above the skyline A full lotus flower formation opened against the Singapore skyline, drawing on Southeast Asian symbolism to ground the international launch in its regional setting, visible across the Marina Bay waterfront.
- Reveal synchronisation The outdoor drone performance was choreographed in close timing with the indoor event programme, so guests inside the MBS venue experienced the reveal and the aerial show as a single unified moment rather than two separate components.
- Fireworks integration Live fireworks were integrated into the drone sequence during the Porsche formation climax, combining pyrotechnics and precision aerial choreography above the Marina Bay Sands skyline in a layered finale.
On-Site Execution
Pre-Show Planning
Pre-event coordination covered CAA Singapore airspace authorisation for the Marina Bay flight zone, staging logistics at MBS, and timing alignment with the indoor event team running the product reveal programme. Drone systems were calibrated for the high-ambient-light environment of the Marina Bay district, with formation geometry tested for legibility against the MBS and Singapore skyline at night. Cue protocols were established with the event director for the indoor-outdoor reveal synchronisation.
Day-of Operations
The drone fleet was staged at the Marina Bay outdoor area during the afternoon setup window. At the designated cue from the indoor event director, the show launched on time with the formation sequence running without interruption. The Porsche crest formation and fireworks integration executed as rehearsed, with the outdoor climax visible to guests inside the MBS venue through the event space's waterfront-facing positions.

What Clients Say
We needed the launch to feel unlike anything else staged in Singapore that year. The 600-drone performance above Marina Bay, synced to the indoor reveal, gave the night an atmosphere that none of the guests had seen at a car launch before.
"We launched our new collection above Marina Bay with 1,300 drones and the results exceeded every expectation. MIRS translated our brand identity into aerial art — our logo and campaign message animated live in the night sky. Organic content from guests went globally viral within hours of the show."
"The 2,500-drone New Year's Eve show above our waterfront was the most talked-about moment our city has seen in years. Every formation was timed with incredible precision to the countdown music. The crowd reaction was unlike anything we had witnessed before. MIRS is already confirmed for next year."
"Working with MIRS was seamless from the first briefing to the final flight. They understood the brief immediately, proposed creative formations we hadn't imagined, and delivered with military precision on the night. The footage became our most-shared asset of the entire year."
"We needed a centrepiece moment for our annual summit that our delegates would never forget. MIRS delivered exactly that — a 1,000-drone show that had 3,000 executives completely speechless. The production quality, the safety standards, and the creative execution were all world-class."
