Dubai On New Year’s Eve – Best Places To Watch The Fireworks This Year

December 20, 2021

Dowtown Dubai And Burj Khalifa

New Year’s Eve fireworks displays have become a global phenomenon, with many cities vying to host the best party. It may surprise you, then, that the best place to see a New Year’s Eve fireworks display is not in New York or London, but in Dubai at the Burj Khalifa. The Burj Khalifa’s New Year’s Eve show has become an international spectacle drawing millions of viewers from around the world. Get there early. Preferably, by evening, because it’s standing room only after the fireworks. You want to make sure that you can see everything and everyone clearly. One of the best things about celebrating NYE in Dubai is all of the exciting things to do after the fireworks. The Burj Khalifa will display a visual extravaganza of lights to accompany the fireworks, and if you’re a foodie, then head over to Souk Al Bahar for a delicious meal. Alternately, if you’re looking to celebrate the new year in style and find yourself yearning for a drink or two, then make your way to one of the many bars nearby.

Palm Jumeirah

Waking up to the sound of gushing waterfalls is a common thing for residents of the Palm Jumeirah. And it’s easy to see why. The seaside community is located on an artificial island on the coast of Dubai, and residents have the opportunity to spend their mornings on the beach, go for a swim in the pool, or have a breakfast at one of their private balconies. The best way to experience the Palm Jumeirah is to purchase a package from one of the nearby resorts. These packages often include access to activities like snorkeling or deep-sea fishing that can fill an entire day. While these offerings may be cheaper than booking each service separately, you should consider your time constraints before signing on. The show only lasts for about 15 minutes. If you are staying at the Media City, Jumeirah Street and Beach, Dubai Marina and Al Sufouh hotels, Captain Dunes recommends that you view the fireworks from just outside these locations.

The Beach At JBR

The firework display in Dubai is one of the most extravagant shows in the world, but there’s more to it than just watching it. In the Marina District of Dubai, people gather to watch the show in a very different way. The Marina has top-of-the-line hotels, as well as multiple resorts that attract tourists from all over the world every year. This year’s fireworks display over the beach in Dubai, one of the seven emirates of the United Arab Emirates, will take place on New Year’s Eve at midnight. The Jumeirah Beach Residence, which sits right on the beach in JBR, will be brightly lit and the fireworks will be more impressive than ever before. The entire area is always lit up with exciting colors and loud booms. The crowded streets of Dubai are bad for pedestrians, but anyone can find a parking spot along the popular seaside promenade. However, you’ll need to arrive early (or be late) because finding public transportation is difficult and taxis are hard to hail.

Madinat Jumeirah And Burj Al Arab

The annual Burj Al Arab fireworks display is a highlight of the New Year’s Eve celebrations in Dubai. The sight of fireworks being launched from the top of the iconic hotel is broadcast live on television and attracts people from all over the city and neighboring emirates. In addition, several major roads in Jumeirah and Dubai Marina are closed to traffic during this time, so be sure to check which ones will be affected before heading out.
