On the occasion of the 2024 New Year, the world's tallest building, the 828-meter Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, held a traditional New Year's fireworks and light show, bringing a wonderful visual feast to the audience.
During the countdown to the audience, the Burj Khalifa's floor LED screen displayed the words "Happy New Year to you" in Arabic, English and Chinese. As the time enters 2024, the building will be surrounded by dazzling fireworks that will light up the night sky of Dubai.
This year's Burj Khalifa New Year fireworks light show took 10 months to prepare, using a total of more than 15,000 fireworks from more than 3,000 locations. The fireworks show lasts for nearly 9 minutes, combining cool light and shadow with powerful sound effects, and using the latest technology to make the fireworks bloom in sequence according to the design.
In addition to watching the fireworks, the audience can stand by the artificial lake under the Burj Khalifa, and also enjoy the world's largest fountain - Dubai** Fountain at the same time. On the occasion of the arrival of the New Year, about 100,000 liters of fountain water column rises into the air, and the tacit cooperation with the scene is tacit to create a kaleidoscopic fountain performance, which is spectacular. Inside the artificial lake, more than 6,700 lights light up the water, and mist rises from time to time, making the audience feel like they have entered a fairyland.
The New Year's fireworks and light show is free for Dubai citizens and visitors. In addition, fireworks shows are also staged at midnight at Burj Al Arab in Dubai, The Palm, Dubai Creek Harbour and many other landmark attractions.
