This after the much-anticipated sky spectacle failed to get off the ground due to what organizers say as low GPS signal.

The first ever 3D Drone Lightshow was touted as one of the biggest attractions of the 86th Araw ng Davao over the weekend.

Jennifer Romero, officer-in-charge of the Davao City Tourism Operations Office (CTOO), in an interview on Monday said they will investigate and talk to the technical team to ex- plain what went wrong.

“We will investigate and we will talk to the technical team so that we can understand and get their side on the technical aspect of what happened. We really planned last Saturday’s activity, together with the Execom and the organizers. It’s just so unfortunate na naa kita’y technical problem and we are still looking into in-depth what really happened because it’s beyond our troubleshooting. We also did our share during the event but on the technical aspect, kana pa ang atong pagatan-awon,” she said.

She also said they have yet to meet and discuss with the organizer of the event, Manic Nightnings Production, concerning the fiasco.

Last Saturday, Dabawenyos flocked the coastal road in Bago Aplaya for the first-ever drone Lightshow, which was the highlight of the Araw ng Dabaw Music and Arts Festival. The event was scheduled to start at 5 p.m. until 1 a.m. while the drone show was scheduled at 8 p.m.
