Burj Khalifa Unveils Cutting-Edge Façade Lighting Upgrade

  • Advanced RGBW lighting system adds dynamic vibrancy
  • Launch aligns with Eid Al Etihad festivities

Emaar Properties has announced a transformative lighting upgrade for the Burj Khalifa. The advanced RGBW lighting system, which integrates innovative technology with architectural elegance, will premiere during the UAE’s Eid Al Etihad celebrations on 1 December 2024. The upgrade coincides with the countdown to the tower’s 15th anniversary on 4 January 2025.

The new system transforms the building’s iconic façade with an extensive palette of colours and dynamic effects, enriching the guest experience while reaffirming Dubai’s prominence as a leader in urban design and innovation.

The project involved six months of testing to ensure flawless execution. The RGBW technology replaces static lighting with dynamic, colour-changing fixtures that produce intricate lighting patterns. These effects seamlessly integrate with the Burj Khalifa’s media screen, complementing the tower’s architecture and adapting to diverse events and occasions.

Mr Ahmad Al Matrooshi, Executive Director at 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.”

This innovative project seamlessly combines technology and artistry, positioning Burj Khalifa as a global beacon of modern architectural excellence and inspiring future lighting projects worldwide.
