‘Really sorry’: Premier speaks after Vivid drone show cancellation

The show could not be postponed to a later time that evening because the harbour needed to reopen. Speaking at a press conference in Sydney on Sunday, Premier Chris Minns said: “I am really sorry about last night. A lot of families and kids were really looking forward to last night. “It is deeply regrettable, and I am sincerely sorry. The decision was made by the drone operator and it was completely weather dependent. They made the call as late as possible – not to inconvenience families, but to actually see whether they could go ahead with the program. “I know families are doing it really tough at the moment and the free entertainment that comes about as a result of Vivid and the drone show is welcome because it means you can take your kids and family out, and it doesn’t cost anything to see it.”
