Vivid Sydney’s dazzling drone extravaganza “Star-Bound” was abruptly canceled after technical glitches derailed the Monday night show, prompting organizers to scrub Tuesday and Wednesday’s performances too — all in the name of safety. Planned as the festival’s biggest ever drone display, featuring up to 1,000 drones lighting up the harbor for 12 minutes nightly, the event’s cancellation stings especially after last year’s show was scrapped. Drone tech, while dazzling, remains fallible — recall last July’s Melbourne disaster where drones crashed into water due to wind and glitches. With safety first, organizers are collaborating with operators and authorities to sort it out — and fans will have to wait to see if the sky show returns.
