024 ArchivesChristmas Spectacular Starring the Radio City Rocketteshas taken place every holiday season in New York City since 1933. But this year the always festive finale will look different — and be way more high-tech.
That's because Intel is bringing in its lightweight Shooting Star Mini drones — the smaller version of the drones that made appearances at the Olympics and the Super Bowl — for some light-filled, choreographed visions. The final scene is called "Christmas Lights"; it's all very on theme.
SEE ALSO: Lady Gaga used hundreds of Intel drones to pull off Super Bowl halftime showMost notable will be the sheer number of drones: A hundred of them, all synced and moving together to create holiday cheer. The drones hold LED lights that can make 4 billion colorful combinations.

Earlier this year, 50 of the drones flew through the San Francisco Pride indoor opening event. At Audi's electric car unveiling in September, 850 full-size Shooting Star drones made the Audi logo outside the venue.
Here's the scene: Aerialists will fly across the stage, then 100 Christmas lights (aka drones) will surround Santa Claus, and then the Rockettes will appear and finish off with a dance. Above there's a preview of part of the final scene, with the drones flying around Santa.
The show begins Friday night at Radio City Music Hall and runs through Jan. 1.
UPDATE: Nov. 12, 2018, 10:39 a.m. PSTFor outdoor events Intel usually uses its full-size Shooting Star drones, not the mini drones as originally reported.
