Skyworx once again redefined the festival experience at Lollapalooza 2025, delivering a breathtaking custom drone show during the headline set of global K-pop sensation TWICE. This show, in collaboration with Netflix and their new animated series “K-pop Demon Hunters,” turned the night sky over Grant Park into light, motion, and fan excitement as the first girl group took the main stage of Lollapalooza.
A New Era in Music Festival Entertainment
The Skyworx team crafted bespoke aerial visuals honoring both TWICE and the narrative of “K-pop Demon Hunters.” Audiences were captivated by displays of group logos, character silhouettes, and key show moments, including the fan-favorite message “The honmoon is sealed”, a direct reference to the show that resonated strongly with both TWICE fans and series enthusiasts alike. Set against a backdrop of live music and festival energy, the performance created an unforgettable, immersive experience that seamlessly merged music, pop culture, and cutting-edge technology.
Fan Reactions to the Drone Show: A Creative Tribute to TWICE
The drone show elicited profound admiration across social media, with fans globally expressing heartfelt emotional resonance and appreciation for the spectacle. Highlighting the environmental benefits, Instagram user @lovemandywang remarked, “Drones are infinitely cooler and so much less harmful for nature than fireworks,” emphasizing the show’s sustainable innovation. The connection to fandom was deeply felt, as Reddit user u/SeparateClassroom117 shared, “Thank you for including the laburis (TWICE plushies). I speak for the entire fandom when I say that the drone show was a huge tribute to our girls :)”. The iconic “honmoon lines” especially moved fans, with Instagram’s @c.adele.a confessing, “I think I would openly sob if I got to witness the honmoon lines, bro.” The creative execution was universally praised, as @neko2412neko put it, “Someone really understood the assignment here!!! So cool!!!”
Even those outside the K-pop community found themselves captivated. One Reddit user noted, “I don’t follow K-pop but I’ve been seeing ‘Honmoon’ everywhere on social media. Can someone explain what this is all about it being resealed or whatever?”
The concept of “Honmoon” is central to K-Pop Demon Hunters, representing a mystical protective layer shielding humanity from dark forces, maintained through the heroic singing of the Huntr/x trio. TWICE’s role in the drone show and series symbolizes their part in “sealing” this protective phenomenon, uniquely blending narrative and spectacle in a resonant, culturally rich performance.
Building on a Proven Legacy: Zedd at Lollapalooza 2024
This year’s show marked Skyworx’s second high-profile Lollapalooza collaboration, following their 2024 drone show for electronic music icon Zedd. That performance set a new bar for live entertainment, wowing crowds with intricate choreography and synchronized effects above one of the festival’s biggest crowds. This successful partnership demonstrated Skyworx’s ability to elevate any headline act and create lasting memories for audiences and artists alike.
