We visited 17/5/13 and saw the 2pm and 6pm showing and although they were good they were not as good as the fountains at the bellagio hotel in Las Vegas. If you are already in the Dubai mall then try to see them but don't make a special trip. The fountain show lasted approx 4 to 5 mins.

Not worth just going to see the fountains. Best time to go is in the evenings as their are lovely restaurants surronding the fountains with a fantastic vibe and it is right next to Dubai mall which is open until 10pm.

This was one show well worth seeing but preferably from the comfort of one of the nearby restaurants. Our party covered three generations and everybody really enjoyed it. We had an outside table at The Gelato restaurant and that made our evening. We will do this again and heartily recommend it.

We thought we'd take a look and were blown away. The performances last about 5 mins and are every 30 mins between 6(?) and 11pm. The show is fantastic and in some ways much better than a similar firework show. It can be hard to get a good spot to watch them from if you're standing directly in front of... More

This is an amazing attraction and definitely one to see when you visit Dubai. The fountains are spectacular and need to be seen both in the daytime and again at night as the display changes each time and the evening displays are the best by far, although to appreciate them the daytime ones need to be seen too. I agree... More

the Dubai Fountain light show which runs every half hour only lasted about 3 mins. I was told it is like the vegas fountain light show but the vegas one is better and longer. Wasnt that impressed with this one.
