Dubai Fountain, probably the most visited site in the city, is going to take a temporary break from its melodious and spectacular shows. The last show will be on April 19, 2024, after which this fountain, which has been enthralling millions since its very first show in 2009, will close yet another exciting chapter in its life. After that final performance, it will go into a five-month maintenance period during which it will be upgraded and refurbished.
This stunning Dubai Fountain, located near magnificent Burj Khalifa on Burj Khalifa Lake, is an extraordinary display of synchronized water jets dancing to specially selected tracks. The performances hypnotize both residents and tourists alike. It is not uncommon to witness one of its many nightly performances thronging with eager onlookers to catch this amazing water illuminated by thousands of lights. The final show promises to be extraordinarily unforgettable, as organisers are planning a special performance in honour of this fountain's rich history. As people come together to bid farewell to the fountain before it closes for a temporary period, this event is bound to invoke great attendance. Probably, the Dubai Mall will also hold several festivities preparing for the last show and give a lively atmosphere and many more reasons for celebrations.
The closure of five months will also keep the fountain working efficiently and looking good. Overall, some applications for replacing obsolete items, improvement of water and lighting systems, and new music scores will be used. All of these together fall under a larger strategic vision of Dubai to continue keeping its place as an elite destination in global tourism by improving the visitor experience day-after-day. This is going to disappoint numerous regular visitors and tourists, but it brings assurance from officials that such a stop is necessary for the very future of the fountain and will certainly allow it to shine even brighter in days to come.
