Breathtaking drone show of 2,977 lights illuminates NYC skies before 9/11 anniversary

Add The New York Post on Google Drones lit up the Big Apple skyline ahead of the 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terror attacks — at one point eerily recreating the Twin Towers, video shows.

The breathtaking show projected 2,977 lights — one for each of the victims killed in the terror attacks — against the night sky over Lower Manhattan Wednesday.

At one point, the lights joined together to replicate the Twin Towers as they once stood in 2001, incredible footage shows.

A light installation in the shape of the Twin Towers is illuminated with drones over One World Trade Center and the Manhattan skyline on September 9, 2026, in New York City. John Angelillo/UPI/Shutterstock The Tribute in Light installation was sponsored by the New York Foundation of the Arts.

It came ahead of the annual ceremony at Ground Zero marking the anniversary of the attacks on Friday.
