Emaar, the developer behind Dubai’s most iconic landmarks, has invested over $1 billion in shaping and enhancing the city’s global identity. And this cumulative contribution underscores the company’s long-standing commitment to reinforcing Dubai’s international standing through unique experiences, vibrant cultural platforms, and landmark social infrastructure.
From creating/operating Dubai Fountain (the world’s largest choreographed fountain) and producing the internationally acclaimed New Year’s Eve celebrations at Burj Khalifa to enabling the launch and success of Dubai Opera as the region’s cultural epicentre, Emaar has consistently raised the bar in enriching Dubai’s urban and cultural fabric.
These experiences are sustained and enhanced through ongoing annual investments exceeding $50 million, covering the operation and maintenance of key attractions and the evolution of immersive technologies and entertainment formats. This includes modernizing Burj Khalifa’s façade with next-generation lighting and projection systems, enabling captivating narratives that reach millions of viewers globally.
Along with its physical contributions, Emaar continues championing inclusive growth and community wellbeing. Through the Emaar Foundation, the company also supports various local causes, from charitable housing and development programs to national sports and cultural sponsorships.
