Dubai’s New Year Fireworks Breaks Record

(Dubai) – The world watched in awe as Dubai set a new world record for the largest ever firework display. A dazzling array of colours illuminated the night sky above the city as a staggering 450,000 fireworks were launched in six minutes to set the new world record.
The grand show started with a unique pyrotechnic countdown around the Palm Jumeirah’s crescent. Reminiscent of the spectacular opening of Atlantis, The Palm, in 2008, the show once again put Dubai on the world map with people from all over the world coming together to celebrate the new year.
The spectacular show provided a perfect backdrop for thousands of parties hosted around the city as Dubai added its name to the record books once again.
