The threat of drones to stadiums encompasses a range of concerns related to the potential risks and negative impacts that drones can pose to sporting and event venue operations. Also known as Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) or Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS), drones have gained popularity for both recreational and commercial purposes. However, when operated irresponsibly or maliciously, drones can create a range of challenges for stadium management, security, and event organizers.
