Worst Idea of the Year? Drones to Deliver Beer to Concertgoers at Oppikoppi Music Festival, South Africa

... #ad▼

The OppiKoppi festival in South Africa is planning on offering concertgoers the option of remotely ordering brews. Beer-equipped drones are expected to swoop down and deliver the drinks via parachute to the ordering customers at this year’s fest. These beer drones are hand guided for now, but will operate on a GPS grid in the near future.

Oppikoppi music festival is held in the Limpopo Province of South Africa, near the mining town of Northam. The festival hosts most music genres. The festival is held on the second week of August.

Oppikoppi literally means “on the hill” with camping area at the foot of a hill. On top of the hill is a bar and a stage that features all the hip hop and dance acts, while the main stages feature all of the big acts and most of the rock bands. Oppikoppi has several stages with simultaneous performances.
