Wintjiri Wiru

Last night I had the chance to experience the Wintjiri Wiru at Uluru – a breathtaking performance telling an Aboriginal Mala story using hundreds of drones to light up the desert night. The storytelling, the colours, and the sheer scale were unforgettable. They don’t allow photos or videos during the show, but the sunset beforehand was absolutely stunning with Uluru as the backdrop. If you ever get the chance to visit, I can’t recommend it enough.

This was an excellent place to visit for the drone show. We faced an issue when my Assistance Dog was too scared to get on the coach due to its size, but the tour operators were fantastic and immediately arranged for another staff member to up my wife and I with my dog. The staff member Jamie was excellent and very understanding. He also returned after the show to return us to our accommodation with us asking for this. And there was no extra charge. As a disabled traveller I cannot recommend the event and the team highly enough. The food was excellent and all drinks were included in the price

Beware of tourist rip-offs! We booked a drone show for over 400 Australian dollars for two people. The price included a snack box with crackers and cheese, as well as wine. Since we don't drink alcohol, this was of absolutely no interest to us. We watched the sunset for almost an hour, which is just as beautiful from the official viewpoint included in the park entrance fee. The show was supposed to start at 7 pm. Instead of the drone show, which was supposedly canceled due to high winds, we were only presented with a laser show. A few laser lights ran across the meadow, and after ten minutes, it was all over. All in all, the whole experience lasted one and a half hours, including the transfer to and from the hotel. It's a great business idea to sell overpriced wine and cheese. Make sure you can drink enough wine to make it worthwhile.

Absolutely loved this experience combining amazing views, thoughtful service and cultural extravaganza showing the history and tours of this land. Much respect to the organisers for show casing it so beautifully. This was one of a lifetime experience for us. Definitely recommend this to everyone who visits this place!

Quite amazing how an ancient story can be presented to integrate with modern life and with the landscape. An extraordinary achievement in one of the most spiritual and beautiful settings in Australia. Wonderful hospitality and we were very full with food and drinks. We had the sunset dinner option and it was so wonderful to spend the extra time on the deck just taking in the scenery and watching Uluru change colour whilst sipping cocktails and enjoying canapés. Our teenagers enjoyed some mocktails. You can’t take video or photos of the show but that is quite okay as it’s best to enjoy in person in situ. There are blankets for you to be more comfortable and as twilight comes a lovely prepared picnic basket is provided of savouries cheese, bread, water and sweets. We saw the twilight drinks group join us and then as the darkness set in the drone show started. There are toilets on site and the bar is very generous. Great for couples, families, big groups, all abilities so long as you can get on/off a coach bus. Definitely buy tickets in advance. Be aware sometimes the drones don’t fly if there is too much wind. Highly recommend if you are in Uluru.

After 8yrs travelling Oz and a few years working in theatre, I have to say this was probably the best theatrical production I have seen! It is just the most incredible display of light and sound immersed into the natural landscape and what a backdrop too! The sunset over Kata-Tjuṯa and the fairy floss sky over Uluṟu was spectacular! Worth every dollar, I would not hesitate to attend again! Highly recommend this even if it is the only thing you do while in the area. Rug up this time of year as it gets cold once the sun is down

This was by far one of the highlights of our recent trip to visit Uluru! Like the name Wintjiri Wiru suggests, this is an absolutely beautiful view on every horizon! The drone show, lasers, music and story of the Mala as told by the Traditional Custodians of this land, were so beautifully overwhelming in this incredible setting. Coupled with a choice of local beers & wines, gourmet cheese box, & a blanket to keep warm, this was such a beautiful experience, one that will stay with us forever. I highly recommend this experience if you come to Uluru!

Intimate and authentic. Understand we are in the middle of Australia at an iconic regional location , where we experience the traditions of the country on which we stand. Enjoy what is advertised with the people you are with. Amazing wait, bar and hosts. The drones add to the story but the laser stands on it as own.
