About The Dubai Fountain

The Dubai Fountain on the Burj Khalifa Lake is a choreographed fountain that shoots water as high as 150 metres to music and lights.

Set on the 30-acre lake between The Dubai Mall, Souk Al Bahar and Burj Khalifa, the Dubai Fountain performs short shows set to Arabic, classical and pop music. Evening shows normally run every 30 minutes, with a couple of afternoon performances.

It is free to watch from the promenade outside the mall, from the bridge to Souk Al Bahar, or from the terraces of the restaurants around the lake. Traditional abra boats and a floating boardwalk offer closer views for a fee.
