Ascend to Level 124 of the Burj Khalifa for sweeping 360° views, then enjoy a reserved 3-course meal at an on-site restaurant. Fast elevators and accessible facilities make this a dramatic, low-effort way to experience Dubai’s skyline and the evening fountain show.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step into light and glass, elevator doors sealing behind you as the city slides away. Within a minute you’re thrust skyward — the Burj Khalifa’s elevator climbs like a soft, steady hand lifting you through a vertical weather. On Level 124 the floor opens to a 360° panorama: a city of geometry and sand, the Persian Gulf glinting to the north, and the weaving creek below that keeps the city in motion.

History
Opened in 2010, Burj Khalifa was part of Dubai’s early-21st-century push to create global-scale tourism and commercial nodes, shifting development onto reclaimed and engineered land.
Conservation
The tower operates with water-saving plumbing and energy management systems, but Dubai’s high visitation and arid setting mean visitors should minimize water use and follow local waste guidelines.

Book sunset slots early
Sunset times sell out fast — reserve an hour before dusk to capture daylight-to-night transitions and the fountain show.
Carry ID and passport details
Bring the same passport used to book tickets; it’s often required for entry and table reservations.
Layer for indoor AC
Dubai’s interiors are strongly air-conditioned; a light jacket keeps you comfortable after the outdoor deck.
Arrive 20–30 minutes early
Security checks and elevator queues mean early arrival avoids missing your scheduled window.
Photo-ready camera or smartphone
A wide-angle or panoramic setting captures the cityscape and fountain performances.
Valid passport or government ID
Required for booking verification and entry into the tower and dining venues.
Light jacket or shawl
Useful for cool air-conditioned interiors after exposure to the sun.
Comfortable walking shoes
Hard-floor decks and short walks to transport/drop-off points make comfortable shoes practical.
