A Celebration of British Farming, Community & Hawkstone

On 5 November, The Farmer’s Dog became the stage for one of the most memorable bonfire night celebrations in the Cotswolds, as Hawkstone commissioned Celestial to deliver a breathtaking drone light show above the pub and surrounding countryside.

Set against the backdrop of Jeremy Clarkson’s rural pub, hundreds of guests gathered to enjoy an evening of great food, Hawkstone lager and cider and a spectacular aerial performance that transformed the night sky into a celebration of British farming and the Hawkstone story.

Using a fleet of illuminated drones, Celestial created a series of custom aerial animations inspired both by Hawkstone’s heritage and the popular TV series Clarkson’s Farm. In addition to the Hawkstone branding, the show included barley fields, tractors, Gerald’s portrait and even procreating pigs!

The drone show was later featured in Series 5 of Clarkson’s Farm, which aired in May 2026, bringing the spectacle to millions of viewers around the world. The episode captured the excitement of the evening and highlighted how innovative storytelling can bring together hospitality, agriculture and entertainment in a truly memorable way.
