“The video shows a drone show at the Prayagraj Maha Kumbh.”
What FACTLY found
The video shows the largest aerial display of a gingerbread village, created with 4,981 drones by Sky Elements Drone Shows and UVify in Mansfield, Texas, on 26 November 2024, which is also recognised in the Guinness World Records. Though the Uttar Pradesh government plans a separate drone show with 2,000 drones for the Prayagraj Maha Kumbh, this video is not related to the event.
