The Palm Fountain at The Pointe, Dubai\u2019s premier lifestyle and dining destination by Nakheel, has secured the Guinness World Record for the World\u2019s Largest Fountain after a breathtaking launch streamed live across the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The magical show was attended by distinguished guests, residents and tourists, who watched in awe as The Palm Fountain broke the record in tune to an exclusive song \u2013 Dubai is another planet, produced to reflect the city\u2019s vibrant and inspirational spirit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A celebration of Dubai\u2019s creativity and ambition, The Palm Fountain is spread over 14,000 sq ft of sea water and is the only multi-coloured fountain in the city. Its super shooter stands tall at 105 metres and comes alive with over 3,000 LED lights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Palm Fountain launch, during which strict health and safety protocols were observed, included an array of live entertainment including a magical firework display. Two of the Middle East’s much loved and award-winning Disney songs – Let It Go from Frozen and A Whole New World from Aladdin – were also played for the momentous occasion, and are part of the fountain\u2019s regular programming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The fountain is open to the public year-round from sunset to midnight, delighting visitors with over 20 bespoke shows with five different variations swaying to an array of popular songs including Khaleeji, pop, classic and international.
