Synchronised drone displays and fireworks to welcome the New Year in Dubai

Dubai is preparing to celebrate the New Year with synchronised drone displays and firework spectacles across some of the city’s most breathtaking backdrops including:

•Burj Khalifa Fireworks
Burj Khalifa will light up to welcome the New Year in true Dubai fashion. Stunning fireworks will set the sky above Downtown Dubai alight in dazzling colours. The 828metre-tall architectural marvel will sparkle to ring in 2025 at the Emaar New Year's Eve at Burj Park celebration. Locals can indulge in delicious F&B options and enjoy live entertainment while waiting for the spectacular fireworks display.

•Palm Jumeirah Boardwalk
The 11km boardwalk along the crescent of the Palm Jumeirah will be the place to be on the Palm this New Year’s Eve. The walkway has numerous spots for visitors to watch the Atlantis fireworks, as well as the Burj Al Arab and Burj Khalifa displays from the Rixos-end of the crescent.

•Drone Shows
To complement the citywide fireworks, the DSF Drones Shows will see two all-new, awe-inspiring synchronised drone displays colour the night sky at The Beach, JBR and Bluewaters. Completely free-to-attend, the two incredible displays featuring 1,000+ coordinated drones that will wow New Year’s Eve crowds in a symphony of colours and shapes. The first show, at 8.00pm, will celebrate Dubai’s past, and the second, at 10.00pm, will look ahead to the city’s future. The drones will tell a powerful story, integrating iconic Dubai landmarks into the visuals.
