This time the show was in downtown Miami for an awe-inspiring 500-drone light show, marking the send-off for the six Concacaf women’s national teams – Canada, Costa Rica, Haiti, Jamaica, Panama, and the United States. Miami is the headquarters of Concacaf and also where FIFA has recently opened a new office.

Last week, Skyworx staged a spectacular 500-drone light show from Santa Monica pier, promoting the 2023 Concacaf Gold Cup Final, which was played at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, between Mexico and Panama.
“We are honored to have been part of this historic celebration and send-off for Concacaf’s women’s national teams,” expressed Taylor Woodall, founder of Skyworx Drone Shows. “Through our drone light show, we aimed to capture the essence of unity and excitement that surrounds the women’s game while paying tribute to the teams’ remarkable achievements.”
The opening round of matches had mixed results for Concacaf’s teams. The US opened with a straightforward 3-0 win over Vietnam, Canada drew with Nigeria 1-1, Haiti challenged England but lost 1-0, and Costa Rica lost to Spain 3-0. Perhaps the best of the Concacaf results was Jamaica’s 0-0 draw with one of the tournament’s hot favourites France.
