Palm Fountain celebrated Disney weekend

Saturday, May 15, 2021

Residents of the United Arab Emirates and visitors were recently invited to experience a magical Disney weekend at the Pointe, Nakheel’s iconic waterfront destination on Palm Jumeirah. Guests enjoyed dazzling fountain shows and incredible dining offers across the destination from May 13-15. 

To mark the festivities, the Pointe also debuted a new song in its show-stopping fountain display. For the first time, the Palm Fountain danced to ‘Starting Now,’ an original song written specifically for Disney’s yearlong Ultimate Princess Celebration, which spotlights the courage and kindness of Disney heroines.

The first-ever Princess Anthem joined the Palm Fountain’s existing line-up of Disney hits such as Aladdin’s ‘A Whole New World’, Frozen’s ‘Let It Go’ and Mulan’s ‘Reflection’, which played every hour from 19:00.  To ensure a steady flow of traffic, free shuttle buses were provided from Nakheel Mall to The Pointe every 20 minutes from at 17:00 until midnight from May 11-15.

Alternatively, visitors were also allowed to reach the Pointe by car and park at the Pointe Promenade East or West, or use valet parking. Strictest health and safety measures were observed during the festivities. Social distancing markers were in place across the Pointe, and regular sanitisation continues to take place throughout. All visitors were also asked to wear a mask.
