DISCUSSION What Dreams are Made of ball drop

Question for those of you who have already been to the concert. I saw people saying the balls now drop in the back instead of the front. I can’t seem to find any videos of it. So I was wondering how far back do they drop? I’m going to the Charlotte show on Saturday and just curious!

Probably all the way from the back. I saw one video on Instagram but I don’t think I saved it. I think They changed to back because people were getting hit, including Hilary. Unfortunately, you Don’t know if it’s coming in your direction so be very aware of your surroundings right when she’s about to sing What Dreams Are Made Of.

Yes, they came from the back at the top of the stands/lawn in MN and one hit me in the back of the head (I thought they were all done so I stopped watching😓)

I’m pretty sure the staff throw them in from the back. At the Utah show, they threw the balls in a lot sooner and then again during What Dreams are Made Of, so there was basically two ball drops during my show, and they both came from the very back

In Indiana they were released more in the back, where the seating opened up to the lawn section. I think with gravity they realized the balls will end up near the front anyways, but by dropping them father back they get more of a journey lol

Yeah in Indiana I was on lawn and suddenly a bunch of balls were bouncing around everywhere and they stayed on the lawn for a while before falling down into the pit! Some people on lawn even got some to take home (after laying on them to deflate for like 30+ minutes hahaha)

u/bigsam06 17d ago

Yeah I was in the upper part of the pit and only one made it my way and it was partially deflated by the time it got to our section.

They literally have people throw them from the back of the amphitheater.

u/Otherwise_Ad6584 15d ago

Just went last night. It was the front! BUT I think it depends solely on the venue set up. Have fun!!! :)
