Visitors can also enjoy the celebrations from the Waterfront Promenade lining the adjacent Dubai Mall, Burj Plaza, the 3.5km Emaar Boulevard, The Pavilion in Downtown Dubai, and other areas in Downtown Dubai, in addition to a drive-in designated location in Al Meydan area.

This year millions of spectators can also view a live broadcast of the fireworks, thanks to Dubai Media Incorporated (DMI). The event will be broadcasted on Dubai Media Incorporated’s Dubai TV, Dubai One, and Dubai FM.
