Drone Safety Day
Annual Drone Safety Day is Saturday, April 26, 2025
Drone Safety Day (DSD) is the FAA’s annual campaign dedicated to educating the drone community of the importance of flying safely and highlight the good that drones contribute to our community. DSD will highlight the benefits of safe drone operations with in-person, virtual, and hybrid events in focus areas such as Education, Environment, and Emergencies.
Join us by having an event of your own! To learn more about Drone Safety Day, check out last year's 2024 Drone Safety Day Playbook and 2024 Drone Safety Day Flyer . These materials will give you an outline of what Drone Safety Day is all about and ideas for how to put together your DSD event.
Our annual theme is “Fly Right”:
