The biggest and brightest drone light show in South Texas returns for the third installment of A Christmas Drone Story. This awe-inspiring holiday spectacle returns with a heartfelt tribute to a cherished local tradition: Las Posadas.
Rooted in the rich cultural tapestry of our southern border communities, Posadas are a vibrant celebration of family, faith, and unity. This year’s event brings that tradition to life with an unforgettable evening of music, food, and dazzling lights.
✨ What to Expect:
• Get here early and enjoy Live performances by the Harlingen South High School’s Pop Choir, Tonal Harmony and the Mariachi Plata de Port Isabel High School performing your holiday favorites.
• A festive culinary experience featuring traditional Posada favorites:
tamales, pozole, buñuelos, pan dulce, and hot chocolate
• A breathtaking 600-drone light show illuminating the night sky with scenes inspired by our unique borderland holiday culture and traditional Christmas themes.
• All set to an electrifying soundtrack by Grammy®-nominated DJ/Producer El Dusty, the pioneer of Nu Cumbia — a genre blending electronic dance beats with Latin American rhythms set to bring the crowd to its feet! Dusty’s music captures the soul of South Texas, transforming the Posada experience into a high-energy celebration that bridges tradition and innovation.
• The musical centerpiece of the evening will be a captivating acoustic performance by acclaimed country music artist Nestor Andress, marking his debut at the Cameron County Amphitheater. Blending timeless holiday favorites with his heartfelt original songs, Nestor brings a unique warmth and authenticity to the stage.
