New Year is almost here, and to celebrate the dawn of 2024 in spectacular style, Ras Al Khaimah promises an unforgettable New Year's Eve extravaganza. Confirmed by the Ras Al Khaimah Tourism Development Authority (RAKTDA) and the Organising Committee, prepare to be dazzled by a magnificent firework display that will illuminate the night sky with breathtaking colours and electrifying beats.
Stretching across 4.5 km of waterfront between Al Marjan Island and Al Hamra Village, this year's show promises to be jaw-dropping, continuing Ras Al Khaimah's legacy of organising awe-inspiring New Year's Eve celebrations. With a history of breaking Guinness World Records for five consecutive years, the festivities are set to reach new heights.
The fireworks display will feature dazzling new choreography elements and cutting-edge techniques, aiming to set new records and create an unforgettable experience. Residents and visitors alike can choose from two spectacular events to witness the spectacle.
For those seeking a vibrant public atmosphere, a free-access event awaits, complete with DJ entertainment, dedicated kids' activities, food trucks, and designated areas for both bachelors and families. Alternatively, indulge in a private ticketed event under the theme "Soundfest," featuring an international artist lineup, a dedicated kids' area, and a tempting array of food and beverages.
Leading up to the grand celebration on December 31, the entire Emirate will be alive with festive family fun. Enjoy tree lighting ceremonies, Christmas events, and NYE gala dinners hosted by Ras Al Khaimah's collection of hotels, including the luxurious Ritz-Carlton properties, the all-inclusive Rixos Bab Al Bahr, Intercontinental Mina Al Arab Resort, Movenpick Resort Al Marjan Island, Hilton Ras Al Khaimah Beach Resort, Longbeach Campground, and many more.
Overnight guests staying in hotels on Al Marjan Island during New Year's Eve are in for a treat, enjoying some of the best seats in the house to witness the magical fireworks display.
