- Revolutionary RGBW lighting to debut during UAE’s Eid Al Etihad celebrations
- Enhances the iconic structure’s global appeal
Emaar Properties has completed a groundbreaking transformation of Burj Khalifa’s façade lighting. The innovative RGBW system integrates advanced technology with architectural elegance, promising a captivating display during the UAE’s Eid Al Etihad celebrations on 1 December 2024. This lighting enhancement also marks the build-up to the tower’s 15th anniversary on 4 January 2025.
The new system offers an expanded palette of brilliant colours and dynamic patterns, enhancing the building’s visual charm and cementing Dubai’s status as a leader in creative design and urban innovation.
The process involved extensive preparation, including six months of mock-up trials to ensure flawless integration. The RGBW system replaces the previous static lighting with adaptable, colour-changing fixtures, delivering intricate lighting displays for various occasions. These dynamic visuals, paired with Burj Khalifa’s media screen, offer versatile illuminations that preserve the building’s iconic aesthetic while adding vibrancy to celebratory events.
Mr Ahmad Al Matrooshi, Executive Director of Emaar Properties, commented: “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.”
By merging advanced technology with artistic brilliance, this project further solidifies Burj Khalifa’s reputation as a global architectural marvel. The lighting upgrade sets a precedent for future architectural lighting designs, ensuring inspiration for projects around the globe.
