Skip to content The Plaza Mayor in Madrid became the perfect setting for an unprecedented event: the first main Carolina Herrera fashion show held outside New York in its 44-year history. Airmedia360, a prominent drone company in Madrid, was in charge of the aerial filming and live broadcast for the brand, providing exclusive images that were followed in real time from New York by Carolina Herrera and her team.
The spring/summer 2026 fashion show held in Madrid paid tribute to the city and its rich culture, with a collection inspired by iconic figures such as Paloma Picasso and the Duchess of Alba. The event was attended by international celebrities such as María Becerra, Pampita, Isabel Preysler, Pedro Almodóvar, Paco León, and Aitana Sánchez Gijón, among others, which exponentially increased media interest around the runway.
Conducting drone flights in the heart of Madrid, especially in a space as emblematic and crowded as the Plaza Mayor, involves complying with a series of strict permits and protocols that only highly experienced operators can manage:
ATZ Cuatro Vientos: necessary permit to operate in the Aerodrome Traffic Zone. This permit requires direct coordination and calls to the control tower before the start and after the end of each flight.
Royal Household (Casa Real): authorization processed through the Ministry of Defense and that must be approved by the Royal Household of Spain. The process takes about 20 business days, and it is necessary to coordinate with the Palace security room.
CECAF: favorable report issued by the Cartographic and Photographic Center of the Air Force, an agency dependent on the Ministry of Defense, essential for operations in sensitive areas.
Ministry of the Interior: mandatory prior notification to operate drones in urban areas, especially at events with a concentration of people and sensitive areas.
In addition, it was essential to manage detailed flight plans, permits to occupy public roads, and work in close collaboration with the National Police and the Local Police of Madrid, whom Airmedia360 especially thanks for their support and professionalism to guarantee safety during all aerial operations.
For the recording and live broadcast, Airmedia360 deployed its fleet with the Mavic 4 Pro and Mavic 4 Pro Creator drones, next-generation cameras that combine the best visual quality with flight agility in complex urban environments. Thanks to this technology, spectacular aerial shots were captured that illustrated the fashion show in detail for both in-person and remote audiences.
One of the keys to success was that Carolina Herrera and her team in New York were able to follow the images broadcast from Madrid in real time, demonstrating Airmedia360’s technical capacity to offer stable, high-resolution, live audiovisual content, even in the most demanding conditions of Madrid’s urban center.
This project reaffirms Airmedia360 as the leading drone company in Madrid for complex aerial filming projects in urban environments and high-impact events. Its experience in the complete management of permits, coordination with authorities, and the use of advanced technology makes it the ideal choice for brands, production companies, and events that require professional aerial images with the maximum legal and safety guarantees.
Thanks to the professionalism and technical solvency of Airmedia360, the fashion show could be covered with spectacular aerial images, integrating tracking shots, live captures for multi-camera production, and editing of resources tailored to the brand’s needs. The result: a broadcast of the highest quality and the best possible audiovisual material for an event of Carolina Herrera’s level.
For any international company, production company, or brand looking for drone services in Madrid, the key lies in strict compliance with legal requirements and the ability to adapt in complex urban environments. Airmedia360 guarantees both: experience, permits, a professional fleet—including state-of-the-art drones—and a team experienced in major events, cinema, advertising, and streaming broadcasts.
