Burj Khalifa Unveils 2 LED Shows
The first show is a three minutes lengthy display by prolific designer Karl Taylor Knight. The breath-taking work celebrates the spiritual value of Ramadan with the crescent moon, themed with Arabic lanterns followed by a majestic sequence of Arabic geometric patterns (mashrabiya) steeped in gold.
The second show is a display by painter Art Noor. It draws inspiration from the 99 names of Allah and took 15 years to complete.
Some of the names of Allah include:
Al Rahman; The Compassionate
Al Rahim; The Merciful
Al Malek; The Lord
Al Qudoos; The Perfect
Al Salam; The Peace and Safety
The entire show is complemented by oriental music. Truly, it’s a rare symphony of melody and design that must not be missed.
Time:
Sunday – Wednesday, every hour from 7:45pm to 10:45pm
Thursday – Saturday, every 30 minutes from 7:45pm to 10:45pm
During Ramadan, the observation deck in Burj Khalifa will have extended operational hours from 10am – 1am.
