I’m just going to rip the bandaid off and tell you that the Dubai Fountain is shutting down for 5 months, starting from May, 2025! Phew, got that out of the way, now I can move on to some good news. It will come back even more mesmerising than before! Emaar Properties will be upgrading the choreography, lighting, and sound system to create an even more immersive experience when it returns. And just to top it off with some more good news – while this this temporary closure is definitely disappointing (especially if you’re a tourist), you can still watch stunning water fountain shows across the UAE! You just have to keep reading to find out where.
