From December 27 to January 12, 2025, the second theme will explore the balance of tradition and modernity, blending powerful visuals with innovative sounds to tell its story.

But that’s not all. For those who crave even more spectacle, an all-new pyro-drone show will take place on December 13 at The Beach, JBR. This thrilling performance combines a pyrotechnic display with skydiving stunts, set against the iconic backdrop of Ain Dubai. The show kicks off at 8pm, with a second pyro-drone display (this time without the skydivers) at 10pm.

If you miss the December 13 pyro-drone show, don’t worry – it will make a grand return on January 11, closing out DSF with another unforgettable performance.
