Where to watch the city’s best fireworks displays

  • Global Village: Celebrate the reopening of Global Village and Diwali from Tuesday, October 25, with various Bollywood shows on the Global Village main stage. It wouldn’t be Dubai without the optics, and this action-packed event will see fireworks lighting up the sky.

Diwali has become a go-to festival in Dubai, with dazzling displays across the city.

And if last year’s effort is anything to go by, we should be in for a treat.

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.
