What are the fairy lights of Ayers Rock

Uluru, the great monolith in the red desert of the Northern Territory it is the spiritual heart of Australia. The mountain that rises from the desert is part of the songlines, the great stories of creation and the feeling of the Aboriginal people. Now this story will be told in the most dreamlike way, with an incredible light show, a first-of-its-kind immersive experience that will launch in its world premiere from Voyages Indigenous Tourism Australia in May at theAyers Rock ResortRed Centre, Northern Territory, Australia.

The show will use cutting-edge laser light and drone technology to shape the ancient narrative of the Anangu people, or one of the Aboriginal communities that are part of the oldest living culture in the world; they are the custodians of the country and its many stories that have been handed down since the beginning of time.

History

More than 1,000 light drones will soar above Uluru after dark in a spectacular choreography to make ancient Aboriginal images and symbols glow in the sky that tell the story of the Mala. The visual show will be accompanied by narration in Pitjantjatjara and Yankunytjatjara language and a soundtrack made with the traditional sounds of local Anangu community members.
