SAVE THE DATE: The Second Drone Challenge at the Digital Futures Drone Arena, May 16-17, 2023

SAVE THE DATE for the Second Drone Challenge at the Digital Futures Drone Arena, a one-of-a-kind interactive event with aerial drone technology!

This year, the challenge is focused on moving together with drones in beautiful, curious, and provocative ways. You don’t need to bring a drone or have technical skills related to programming a drone to participate – we will provide the drone equipment and have technical coaches available to support your explorations.

The challenge takes place at KTH’s Reactor Hall in Stockholm, Sweden, on May 16-17, 2023.  We welcome up to 10 pairs (teams of 2 people) to participate in the challenge. A jury will be judging the final performances, and we have exciting prizes for the most successful teams!

Registration will open shortly at: http://www.dronearena.info/

We look forward to exploring how humans and drones can move together in beautiful, curious, and provocative ways!
