On June 27, 2026, the inaugural BABELL Literary Festival in Portugal presented a large-scale drone and daytime fireworks combined show, "A Single Page," on the Douro River in Porto. The event paid tribute to the 120th anniversary of Lello Bookshop and the 30th anniversary of the city's UNESCO World Heritage designation, with over 100,000 spectators attending on-site. Drawing on the local tradition of blue-and-white azulejo tiles, the show featured drone formations depicting kites, seagulls, blank manuscripts, and blue-and-white trees, concluded with eco-friendly biodegradable fireworks — creating a ten-minute aerial poem. It was also Portugal's first-ever combined drone and daytime fireworks performance.
