A Diwali fountain show is set to bring the celebrations to a fitting – and dramatic – end as Dubai lights up in bright colourful lights. With the five-day Indian festival in full swing from Sunday, October 23, the city is poised to be one of the best places in the world to enjoy the fun.
Dubai residents already have two fantastic firework options available for the light spectacle, but the city’s fountain show may just take the limelight.

Dubai goes big on Diwali every year
Dubai going big on Diwali should come as no surprise, after last year’s spectacle. The Burj Khalifa put on an incredible light show for the Indian festival, with the world’s tallest skyscraper illuminating Downtown Dubai in 2021.
But the fun didn’t stop there, as firework displays took place all over the city – most notably in Festival City, Global Village, and Bluewaters Dubai. Thousands of revelers flocked to celebrate the festival that celebrates the victory of good over bad – and more are expected this year.
