Dubai New Year Fireworks

Fireworks are an important part of New Year’s Eve in Dubai, with celebrations taking place around major landmarks and waterfront locations.
Some cruise and yacht experiences may offer opportunities to view fireworks from the water. However, visibility depends on the selected route and the operating plan for that particular event.
If fireworks are an important part of your plans, check the individual experience details before booking rather than assuming that every cruise or yacht follows the same route.
