At the base of the world's tallest tower is
one of the world's most amazing fountains! In fact it is the world's
largest dancing fountain!
Set on the 30-acre Burj Khalifa Lake, the fountain shoots water jets as
high as 500 ft, equivalent to that of a 50-storey building. The
fountain is 900 ft long and has five circles of varying sizes and two
central arcs. It is designed by California-based WET, the creators of
the Fountains of Bellagio in Las Vegas.
The Dubai Fountain performs daily, with the performance repertoire
including Sama Dubai; Baba Yetu, an award-winning song in Swahili; the
Arab world’s top-selling dance number Shik Shak Shok; and the signature
piece of world-renowned Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli, Con te partiro
(Time to Say Goodbye).
Over 6,600 WET Superlights and 25 colour projectors create a visual
spectrum of over 1,000 abstract attractions. The beam of light shining
upward from the fountain can be seen from over 20 miles away, and will
be visible from space making it the brightest spot in the Middle East,
and quite possibly in the entire world.
