The highlight of the event was a reimagined portrayal of Thailand through contemporary creativity, brought to life by a spectacular drone performance featuring more than 1,050 drones soaring above the Chao Phraya River.

The visuals captured the harmonious coexistence of cultural roots and contemporary life, while a playful scene of a tuk-tuk driving through the city added a moment of surprise and delight for the audience.
The journey then reached the Eastern region, inviting audiences to experience its rich natural abundance through Thailand’s king and queen of fruits—durian and mangosteen—alongside visuals of Khao Chi Chan, a monumental Buddha image carved into a cliff face, symbolising a balance of spiritual strength that nourishes both body and mind.
