- Dynamic RGBW system brings fresh vibrancy to the world’s tallest tower
- Debut scheduled for Eid Al Etihad celebrations
Dubai, United Arab Emirates – Emaar Properties has completed a significant lighting transformation for the Burj Khalifa. The cutting-edge RGBW system, designed to integrate seamlessly with the tower’s architecture, will debut during the UAE’s Eid Al Etihad celebrations on 1 December 2024. This marks the countdown to the iconic tower’s 15th anniversary on 4 January 2025.
This enhanced system transforms the façade with a spectacular spectrum of colours and effects, elevating the experience for visitors while affirming Dubai’s global leadership in innovation and design.
The project required six months of detailed preparation and testing to ensure flawless execution. The RGBW technology replaces static lighting with adaptable fixtures capable of creating intricate, vibrant patterns for festive and everyday displays. These dynamic visuals work in harmony with the Burj Khalifa’s media screen, maintaining the structure’s celebrated aesthetic.
Mr Ahmad Al Matrooshi, Executive Director of Emaar Properties, said: “Burj Khalifa has always stood as a beacon of what is possible when vision meets innovation. This lighting overhaul is a testament to our continuous pursuit of excellence and a tribute to the UAE’s spirit of progress. As we unveil this stunning upgrade during Eid Al Etihad celebrations and approach the tower’s 15th anniversary, this transformation marks a new chapter in its legacy, reaffirming Dubai as a city of boundless ambition.”
The lighting upgrade redefines standards in architectural innovation, showcasing the possibilities when technology and design come together to inspire future projects worldwide.
