Prattville's July 3 America 250 celebration at Stanley-Jensen Stadium will end with the city's first drone show. The free program starts at 6 p.m. CDT at 460 Doster Rd. and includes the national anthem by Delano Williams, live music from Blackberry Breeze and a drone finale for the city’s 250th birthday celebration.

The finale is a 100-drone display, a first for Prattville. Guests can bring lawn chairs or use the stadium stands, and food trucks will be on site with fresh food, cool treats and specialty items. City officials are also warning attendees not to bring personal drones into or around the event area, since unauthorized aircraft could interfere with the show and force delays or cancellation.
