What It’s Like Behind The Scenes At The Burj Khalifa New Year’s Eve Show

A TikTok creator is sharing her experiences working behind the scenes on the Burj Khalifa New Year’s Eve show. Dounya, aka dounyazin is giving us a rare glimpse of the control rooms where the New Year’s Eve countdown takes place and the entire show is monitored, and the countdown footage is going viral.

Dounya calls it the most ‘stressful and invigorating part of the year’, and she even teased some surprises for this year’s show, which the team is already gearing up for.
