The Dubai Fountain Show (Reopens 1 Oct)

The Dubai Fountain, located at the base of the Burj Khalifa, is the world's largest choreographed fountain system and a must-see attraction. It's a free and spectacular display that combines water, light, and music in a breathtaking show.

The shows run every 30 minutes from 6 PM to 11 PM daily. During each five-minute performance, water jets shoot up to 140 meters high, dancing to a variety of musical tracks. While the main viewing area is free and offers a great perspective, for a closer look, you can pay for a ticket to the Dubai Fountain Boardwalk or take a traditional "abra" boat ride on the lake.

The best time to visit is in the evening when the thousands of lights illuminate the water, creating a truly magical atmosphere against the backdrop of the city lights. The Dubai Fountain is a remarkable display of art and technology that perfectly captures the city's innovative spirit.

This is a hot favourite amongst tourists as well as locals and hence the viewing spots gets uite crowded. Check the show timings before and arrive at least 30 minutes before to secure for yourself a good viewing spot. The shows are free

Immersed in the heart of Dubai, the Dubai Fountain show is a mesmerizing spectacle that captivates the senses. Nestled just outside the Dubai Mall, the dazzling choreography of water, light, and music creates an unforgettable experience. As dusk settles, the vibrant lights and towering water jets spring to life at 6:00 pm and running every 30 minutes until 11:00 pm enchanting viewers with a symphony of movement and color. The synchronized dance of music and water is flawlessly executed, beckoning spectators to become one with the spectacle. Close enough to feel the cool mist on your skin, this show is a must-see, delivering a magical and unforgettable journey for all!

I Highly Recommend!

The fountain at Burj Khalifa is beautiful. The atmosphere it creates is fantastic. It's calming. Great to look at, and it's free. For the best view, I recommend the Dubai Mall. There's an Apple Store there, where you can go out onto the balcony. From the apple store balcony, you can get a great view of the Dubai fountain. Give it a try. Have fun!!

One of the most beautiful things I've ever seen! I went to see them for 5 days and the shows were different every time (there is a 10-minute show every half an hour), really engaging! I recommend to be there in advance in order to get the clearest view (go to the Time Out Market to have the best view of the Fountains Show and the Burj Khalifa in front of you!).

Visited the Dubai fountain on a Tuesday evening. We took a walk around the fountain. It was beautiful and crowded. We waited for the 6pm fountain show. More and more people came before the show started. It started on time and the fountain was amazing,but only lasted for less than five minutes. I would definitely recommend it if you happen to be in the area. I am not sure if I would do it just for the show.

The fountain show and the music gives you a sense of sheer HAPPINESS! Out of the world. For those few minutes, just forget about all your worries and absorb the atmosphere, music and the water show. You will be transported into a peaceful place that will relax you. No wonder it is one of the most sought after places to visit! MUST VISIT!

The Dubai Fountain is a breathtaking spectacle that combines water, music, and light in a mesmerizing display. With its choreographed water jets shooting up to 150 meters high, accompanied by music from various genres, it is a must-see attraction in Dubai. The synchronized movements of the fountain create a truly captivating experience that is not to be missed.

The fountain show is 1.00pm to 1.30pm during the day and then 6.00pm to 11.00pm every 30mins during the evenings.

It is free to watch, or you can stop off at any of the many restaurants surrounding the fountain for a bite to eat whilst enjoying the view without the crowd.

I personally consider it overestimated. The fountain show was nice, but I was expecting much more for some reason. At least it's free for everyone. There's always a huge crowd, especially in the night.

Be sure to visit it at night to enjoy the lights. If you want a more premium experience you could also consider the lake ride and see the show directly from the lake while sitting in a boat

This is the best thing I liked about DUBAI.

Must do when you are in Dubai!!! The fountain runs every 30 minutes in the evening, and it is a true spectacle for three to five minutes!

I visited around 11pm and it was amazing in the night, must watch Show with boat ride.
Absolutely stunning!
Do not miss!

One of the largest fountain I have ever seen in my life. Amazing structure. Nice ambiance. Nice music with new color feature. Very crowded area because of his uniqueness. From all over the world people use to come here to enjoy the fountain. That's amazing architecture from humans..

Wonderful place of attraction. I have been to this place unlimited number of times. Yet each time, I feel it to be unique and attractive. Every relatives or friends who come to visit will request me to take them there. Food around this place it expensive but there are few restaurants that offer awesome view of the foundation while having a dinner or coffee. Taking a boat ride as well is a real good experience. Water Fountain and the Laser show really is wonderful.

It is amazing place. Very comfortable for a walking and get rest. Unbelievable atmosphere. Everyone in my opinion should see it in real life. You can spend all day next to. In evening it is miracle. Go and see. You will change your feelings after. I love it and hope to see not ones.

Really an excellent experience that I have ever seen in fact i also while watching first not able to understand but after 2 times listening to the music the water dances along with the music and according to the music.... Dubai engineers or the engineer who designed and proposed such an excellent design must be appreciated.... So much eager to go there again if long leave available again

where ever the venue...this is a worth watching show...considering it is compared to the one Las vegas. and it cannot be missed if ur visiting Dubai!

Eine echt toll Show! Muss man gesehen haben wenn man dort war. Ab 18 Uhr und dann jede 30 min. Immer um xx.15 und xx.45 ist eine Lichtshow wo der Burj Khalifa in Farben leuchtet. Auch sehr schön. 

Truly interesting fountain show with music behind the Dubai Mall and overlooking the Burj Khalifa. The music changes at each fountain show so you could easily stay for more than one show. I noticed there’s less people gathered for the earlier afternoon. weekend shows (check the schedule), so you’ll get a better photo opportunity then. Nice family activity for visitors and residents alike!!


Le spectacle son et lumière de la fontaine est très beau.
