The Holidays on Water Riverfront Drone Show returns to the Wilmington Riverwalk on December 5, 12 &19. Drones launch at 7:00pm to delight & entertain during a choreographed 15-minute light show. Dress warm and arrive early to secure parking, visit with Santa, and enjoy the sights, sounds and flavors of Downtown Wilmington's decorated streets, restaurants and storefronts. Each night of the drone shows, Santa will be set up along the Riverwalk (near the Christmas tree) for visits with children from 5:00pm until 8:00pm.
