Find me a rooftop tableOn a rooftop on New Year’s Eve in Dubai, the question is what you see from the seat you pay for. A high floor does not mean a fireworks view.
Last New Year’s Eve (31 December 2025), offers that mentioned a fireworks or landmark view started at a median AED 1,475 per person, against AED 1,000 for the rest. That is about 48% more for the view.

Ask for a photo from your table
Ask the venue for a photo taken from the table or zone you are booking, facing the fireworks. A skyline photo in an advert may come from another floor.
Emaar itself said last season that not every Downtown restaurant has a direct view of the Burj Khalifa show.
The rooftop prices published so far for this New Year’s Eve, with each venue’s own words about its view, are in our party price list.
Where will you be at midnight?
Some venues keep you at your table. Others move everyone to a terrace. Ask which, whether the terrace is in your price and whether your group can stand together.
Dress for the open air
Midnight has averaged about 22°C at the airport on the last ten New Year’s Eves. Last New Year’s Eve it was 20°C, and the forecast, as reported by Gulf News, warned of north-westerly winds of 15 to 30 km/h, gusting to 50 km/h.
Bring a layer, and ask what happens to outdoor tables in wind. Our weather guide has the evening hour by hour.
Get the table in writing
Your confirmation should name the table or zone, the number of guests, the food and drinks, the arrival deadline and the total.
Almost a quarter of last season’s offers were a minimum spend, so ask what counts towards it.
Good to know
Does every rooftop in Dubai have a Burj Khalifa view?
No. It depends on where the building stands, which way the terrace faces and what is in front of it. Ask for a photo from your own seat.
How much more does a table with a view cost?
Last New Year’s Eve, offers that mentioned a view started at a median AED 1,475 per person against AED 1,000 without. That is about 48% more. Inside Downtown the gap disappears, because almost everything there is priced for the Burj Khalifa show.
Does an indoor table include the terrace at midnight?
Only if the venue says so. Ask before you book, and ask whether it costs extra.
