Lady Gaga will perform with 'hundreds of drones' at Super Bowl LI's halftime show

Viewers watching Sunday’s Super Bowl LI halftime show will get more than just an epic Lady Gaga performance.
Hundreds of lit-up drones will join her in the airspace above the field at NRG Stadium in Houston, according to CNNMoney. It will be the first time drones are used during a Super Bowl halftime show.
The report doesn’t say what kind of drones will be used or even what company will be orchestrating the quadcopter performance.

But it wouldn’t be the first time hundreds of drones were brought in for a large-scale performance. In November, Disney and Intel partnered up to create the “Starbright Holiday Drone Show,” which used 300 drones flying in formation to shine 4 billion colors into the sky.
Twitter user Felipe_Oif posted a video last week showing what appears to be a practice run of the drone performance:
