The grand opening of Place Vendôme Mall

A new landmark in Qatar’s luxury landscape

Nestled in the heart of Lusail, Qatar’s visionary smart city, Place Vendôme Mall is a shopping destination and a symbol of elegance, innovation, and world-class retail experiences at the same time. Inspired by the grandeur of Paris’s iconic Place Vendôme, the mall beautifully blends classic French architecture with modern sophistication, creating a breathtaking space that redefines luxury in the region. With over 580 high-end boutiques, five-star hotels, entertainment venues, and a stunning waterfront promenade, it stands as one of the most prestigious retail and lifestyle destinations in the Middle East.

The grand opening of Place Vendôme Mall became a celebration of Qatar’s commitment to excellence, attracting guests from across the region for an evening of spectacle and innovation. As Lusail continues to shape the future of urban development, the mall solidifies its place as a must-visit destination, offering an experience that goes far beyond shopping. It’s a reflection of Qatar’s ambition, cultural richness, and vision for the future.

Lighting up Lusail: a spectacular drone show for Place Vendôme’s grand opening

A landmark like Place Vendôme Mall deserves an opening that is nothing short of extraordinary. A simple ribbon-cutting wouldn't do justice to this grand symbol of luxury and innovation—instead, the sky itself became the stage for a breathtaking aerial spectacle. To mark the occasion, Cyberdrone was invited to paint the night wit light, delivering a dynamic, storytelling-driven drone show that would match the splendor of Lusail’s newest architectural masterpiece.

As the evening reached its peak, 300 drones ascended into the sky, moving in perfect harmony like a symphony of light. Over the course of 15 mesmerizing minutes, the sky above Lusail became a living canvas, unveiling formations that captured the essence of Qatar’s retail excellence, cultural pride, and the allure of Place Vendôme.

• Shop Qatar Logo. A shimmering beacon celebrating Qatar’s world-class shopping scene, symbolizing the energy and excitement of the Shop Qatar festival.
• Visit Qatar. A celestial invitation, reminding the world of Qatar’s unmatched hospitality, rich culture, and iconic destinations.
• Gift Box. A twinkling package of possibilities, representing the joy of discovery and the endless luxury within Place Vendôme’s halls.
• Win. The word lit up in the sky like a neon sign, amplifying the night’s excitement and the thrill of exclusive promotions and celebrations.
• Flower. A delicate yet powerful bloom, mirroring the beauty and refinement of the mall’s Parisian-inspired design.
• Sun. A glowing symbol of Qatar’s warmth, ambition, and ever-brightening future, casting golden rays over the city.

This was a statement. A declaration that Lusail is now home to one of the most prestigious retail destinations in the Middle East. As the final formation faded into the night, the crowd was left with a sense of awe—a reminder that when innovation and elegance come together, the result is pure magic.

Drone shows are the ultimate way to elevate grand openings

A grand opening is a moment of anticipation, excitement, and spectacle. It’s the first impression a venue makes on the world, and in today’s experience-driven era, ordinary ceremonies no longer suffice. This is where drone shows redefine the game, turning openings into unforgettable visual experiences that capture attention, spark emotion, and leave a lasting impact.

Unlike traditional entertainment formats that audiences have seen time and time again, drone shows break the mold, offering limitless creativity and breathtaking visual storytelling. They allow brands and venues to tell their story in the sky, making every grand opening not just an event, but an unforgettable experience.

For places like Place Vendôme Mall, where architecture, prestige, and innovation are key to its identity, a drone show does more than entertain—it enhances the brand’s image. The ability to sync movement, color, and design to match a venue’s essence ensures that every opening feels uniquely crafted for the occasion.

Beyond the spectacle, drone shows are also practical. They are eco-friendly, producing no debris, and fully customizable, adapting to any theme, brand story, or cultural significance. With precise control over timing and formations, every detail can be fine-tuned to align perfectly with the opening’s message and atmosphere.

From luxury malls and hospitality landmarks to entertainment hubs and national projects, drone shows have become the gold standard for modern openings. They mark the beginning of something new. They make sure the world notices.
