At Sunriver Resort, we’re known for creating unforgettable experiences, and this July, we’re thrilled to introduce a fresh summer tradition – ‘Independence Illumination.’ Partnering with the drone light show innovators Sky Lites, we’re set to create a mesmerizing spectacle of technology and artistry in the night sky. Much like our much-loved winter event, Grand Illumination, which illuminates our holiday trees, we’re now taking to the skies to celebrate Independence Day with a captivating 75-drone light show on Saturday, July 8, 2023.

The enchanting evening will unfold on the Backyard of the Lodge at Sunriver Resort, starting with live music at 7:00 pm featuring Boomer Country to set the mood. As the day transitions into the night at 9:30 pm, look up and witness the awe-inspiring sight of 75 drones painting the sky with color and light, perfectly choreographed to create stunning formations.

Lindsay Borkowski, our director of sales and marketing, perfectly encapsulates our excitement, saying, “This year, we’re thrilled to elevate our Fourth of July celebration with our first-ever drone light show, ‘Independence Illumination.’ This extraordinary event represents the perfect blend of technology and creativity, and we are eager for everyone to join us under the stars for an evening that promises to inspire and create lasting memories.”

We invite resort guests and the public to join us for this inaugural event. Come early to secure your spot on the lawn in the Backyard of the Lodge at Sunriver Resort and enjoy this unique experience with us. There’s no admission fee, so all you need to bring is your sense of wonder. All our dining establishments will be open during the event, and we recommend making reservations to guarantee your table.

We look forward to celebrating Independence Day in a new light with you all. For more information about the ‘Independence Illumination’ drone light show, the live music event, or dining reservations, please visit sunriverresort.com. Mark your calendars and prepare to be dazzled!
