Please be advised there will be no drone activity in the Whistler Village air space during the Invictus Games.

Flying a drone within the boundaries of the Resort Municipality of Whistler requires a permit, and permits have not been issued for the duration of the 2025 Vancouver Whistler Invictus Games for security reasons.

Whistler RCMP have instructions to mechanically intervene to bring down drones from Friday, February 7 through Friday, February 14. This applies to everyone: media, athletes, visitors, locals, spectators and all other members of the public.

Thank you for your adherence to this important protective measure, and for coming to watch the Games. We are happy to welcome the world to Whistler!
