00:00In a never-before-seen spectacle of fireworks and laser displays on the iconic Burj Khalifa
00:08and the performances of the Dubai Fountain, Emaar mesmerised the world with its New Year's
00:13Eve Gala in Dubai to usher in 2019.
00:23The event welcomed over a million travellers in downtown Dubai.
00:26A highlight was the special tribute to the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the
00:31founding father of the UAE, whose birth centennial was observed in 2018 as the Year of Zayed.
00:52The Emaar New Year Eve 2019 Gala reached its feverish pitch as the countdown to the New
00:58Year's Eve began.
01:00In an all-out display of spellbinding pyrotechniques that deployed over 9,400 fireworks with an
01:07active weight of 1,371 kg and fired from 2,017 positions, the UAE, Dubai and Emaar wished
01:15the world a Happy New Year, with the message relayed in Arabic, English and Chinese.
01:21The illumination of the façade of Burj Khalifa also earned its two additional Guinness World
01:26Records for the largest LED-illuminated façade and the tallest LED-illuminated façade.
01:51The fireworks were stunning, I liked it, I liked the laser show, the display, it was
02:17awesome, I've never seen anything like this in New York, so it was completely amazing
02:21for me.
02:22To my fellow citizens in the US, I would say it's definitely worth a visit, do come, explore,
02:27visit Dubai, visit Abu Dhabi, fantastic, you will love it.
02:31The fireworks, they were, really I don't have words, they were spectacular, they were very,
02:38very good.
02:39One of the best experiences of my life, the best fireworks they did this time, along with
02:44the light show and Dubai as always has superseded all the cities in the world, Dubai the best
02:50place to live.
02:51We actually live here and we love this place.
