The world’s largest fountain will be displayed for the final time this weekend in Dubai.
The Palm Fountain, at The Pointe on Palm Jumeirah, will close on Monday, it has been announced.
Its last shows will take place on Saturday and Sunday evening, The Pointe said on its official Instagram page.
"The Palm Fountain will be closing on Monday, May 15," The Pointe said in its advisory. "Don't miss out and join us with your friends & family from Friday to Sunday," it added.
This dancing fountain — situated on the man-made island of Palm Jumeirah — has been captivating visitors since 2020. Breaking a world record, it has over 3,000 LED lights, 7,500 nozzles, and can shoot water up to 105 metres.
Besides mesmerising the public with its dancing fountains, the site has also been a venue for spectacular fireworks display on special occasions.
In aerial night shots of the Palm, the fountain serves as the perfect accent to the golden glow of the Atlantis and the scenic waterfront destination.
A spokesperson from Nakheel, the developer behind the project, said the decision was taken "after careful consideration and planning". Updates and more details are expected in due course.
"Nakheel remains committed to providing the best experiences possible to citizens, residents and visitors of Dubai," the spokesperson added.
