Burj Khalifa New Year Eve Tickets: A Simple Booking Guide

[pramodmishra]

Every year around October, the same thing happens in Dubai. News comes that Emaar has opened the booking, and within few days people start saying tickets are almost finished. Since many of them wait till the last moment and then miss out, getting a Burj Khalifa NY ticket on time is something that needs a little planning from before.

1. Make a Budget and Guest List First

Before booking anything, sit with your family or friends and fix how many people are going and how much you want to spend. Last year the Burj Park ticket for adults was starting from around AED 580, kids from five to twelve had lower rate and children below five was free. Now if you are a group of six or seven people, the total becomes quite big, so it is better to be clear on the budget in advance.

2. Get Everyone’s Details Ready

While booking, you normally need the name of each guest, email and mobile number. Suppose you are booking for friends or relatives also, then collect their details before the sale opens. This saves time because during the first hours the website gets heavy traffic and tickets goes very fast.

3. Book From a Trusted Place

Let me tell you that there are many pages on Instagram and WhatsApp selling Burj Khalifa NY tickets which are not genuine. My suggestion is to book only through the official Emaar ticketing partner (Platinumlist last year) or through a registered tourism company. Pay by card and keep the confirmation email safe, as you will need it later.

4. Don’t Forget the Badge Collection

After booking, many people think the work is done, but one more step is there. You have to go and collect the entry badge few days before the event, which was between 26th and 30th December last year. Without the badge you cannot enter Burj Park on the night, so mark this date in your calendar.

5. Have a Backup Plan

If the Burj Park tickets are already sold out when you check, don't lose hope. Hotels and restaurants around Downtown and Dubai Mall also sell New Year packages with Burj Khalifa view, and free public areas are there if you reach early. Dhow cruises and yachts are another option, only the view will be from some distance.
At the end of the day, booking a Burj Khalifa NY ticket is not difficult if you start early and follow the steps.
