Fontains

In the basin in front of you, a stunning sound, light, and water show takes place every 30 minutes each evening. All this unfolds while you’re surrounded by Dubai’s tallest buildings, including the Burj Khalifa. It’s similar to the famous fountain show in Las Vegas— except that it’s much bigger. This is actually the largest choreographed fountain system in the world, outshining its American counterpart! Both shows were created by the same U.S. company, known for their jaw-dropping spectacles. The artificial lake at the base of the Burj Khalifa spans more than 11 hectares, and the main fountain stretches over 270 metres. The sheer scale makes for an unforgettable experience, especially with the world’s tallest tower rising behind it. It’s one of Dubai’s must-see attractions, and what’s more, the whole show is set to music – you might hear anything from classical music, Arabic melodies, or pop!
