**About "Drone Show ~Thank You for 45 Years~"**
Since its opening in 1981, Tobu Zoo Park has been loved by local communities for 45 years. To commemorate its milestone 45th anniversary, the park is implementing various appreciation initiatives such as daytime special offer days, novelty giveaways, and a 45th-anniversary animal guide. This drone show will serve as the grand finale for the evening.

White Crow will elevate motifs reflecting the 45-year history and messages of gratitude to visitors into a light animation created by 300 drones. The entire experience, from daytime park activities to the evening show, has been designed as a "full-day commemorative experience."

**Event Highlights**
**① "A Sky of Gratitude" Painted by 300 Drones**
300 drones will simultaneously ascend into the night sky, dynamically expressing messages of gratitude to visitors and the park's 45-year journey. Instead of pre-packaged templates, an original animation created specifically for this event will be shown.

**② A Full-Day Visitor Experience Linked with Anniversary Initiatives**
Linked with daytime commemorative initiatives such as special offer days, novelty giveaways, and the 45th-anniversary animal guide, the drone show will serve as the grand finale of the day's experience. This contributes to enhancing visitor satisfaction, unique to an anniversary, making them want to return.

**③ The Rarity of a Two-Day Limited Event Boosts Attendance**
The rarity of an "experience that can only be enjoyed on that day, in that place" serves as a powerful appeal for motivating visits. In the "Wakaura Fireworks Festival" event involving White Crow, attendance doubled compared to usual, and during Tobu Zoo Park's previous drone show, over 12,000 visitors were recorded on the day.
