Dubai Celebrated New Year’s Eve True To Its Style But With Safety Measures In Place
Thousands gathered in various places across the UAE to welcome the New Year in true UAE style – this time, of course, with social distance measures in place.
Downtown Dubai’s world-famous fireworks and laser light display at Burj Khalifa saw an audience of people clad in face masks
Families and friends gathered in Downtown Dubai – as well as in other parts of Dubai and the wider UAE – to say goodbye to what has been a pretty turbulent year (to put it mildly).

Tribute was also paid to front-line workers for all the challenging work they have done for the community through the better part of the year.
