Emaar, the master developer of the Burj Khalifa, will celebrate New Year’s Eve with a grand masterpiece of fireworks and light & laser show on the world’s tallest building in Downtown Dubai.

To ensure public health and safety for all visitors, several preventative measures will be implemented, including thermal cameras, social distancing, contactless payments and frequent deep cleaning and disinfection, in line with Dubai Government guidelines and directives. 

Emaar NYE 2021 will be broadcast live globally and live-streamed from 8:30 pm UAE time on mydubainewyear.com.

Commenting on the New Year’s Eve celebration in Downtown Dubai, Mohamed Alabbar, founder of Emaar, said: "Delivering world-class experiences is part of Emaar’s DNA and this year we will deliver an even bigger gala event. The world is facing challenges, but we are united, and we will come out of this year stronger than ever before.

"We want to send a message of hope, happiness and positivity into the world because that is the spirit of Dubai that we have learned from His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, who continues to inspire what we do with his extraordinary leadership. Here we reinvent ourselves, achieve the impossible and execute the unimaginable, and we are doing that again with Emaar NYE 2021.".
