    Must see when you are in Dubai The fountain start every 30 minutes in every evening, and it is a true spectacle for up to five minutes! stay for two shows on a Friday evening - it’s different songs, so it’s nice to see it. Only caveat: lots of people - but we easily found a place to view on the front that gave us direct sight of the fountain and the light show. was really amazing :)

    The best place to see the tower without a viewing point. The performance isn’t too long, but you spend time on it. Be sure to arrive at the show within 15 minutes of the start time in order to select a good seat and slip into the queue. Excellent experience, highly recommended.
