New Year's Eve Fireworks: Burj Khalifa Announces Paid Tickets with Prices Jumping Nearly 150%

Tickets for the much-anticipated Burj Park experience will be available for purchase starting October 24, offering front-row views of the spectacular New Year’s Eve fireworks at the Burj Khalifa.

This year, tickets will start at Dh580 for adults and Dh370 for children aged 5 and above, inclusive of a food and beverage voucher.

Following the success of the inaugural paid ticketing system introduced last year, when tickets sold out within days, Emaar has enhanced this year's event. Guests can look forward to live entertainment, children’s workshops, and a curated selection of dining options, creating a festive atmosphere for families and friends as they ring in 2025.

“Burj Park is the ideal location for those wishing to enjoy the iconic Burj Khalifa light, music, and fireworks show in an exclusive setting,”

an Emaar spokesperson stated.

“Guests will enjoy a direct view of the celebrations, free from the usual crowds.”

While Burj Park requires a ticket for entry, other viewing areas in Downtown Dubai will remain free to the public, allowing everyone to partake in the festivities. Live performances will begin at 3:30 PM on December 31, featuring DJs, live bands, and various children’s activities.

Attendees are encouraged to collect their badges from December 26 to 30 to ensure smooth entry. Seating will be on a first-come, first-served basis, with picnic tables, drum tables, and bean bags available for guests. Colour-coded navigation flags will assist in guiding attendees to the venue, ensuring a seamless experience as they celebrate the New Year.
