This would feature fireworks, light and a laser show in Downtown Dubai. In Pakistan the United Arab Emirates (UAE) midnight will strike at 1 a.m. due to time difference, hence the main fireworks will be more of a post-midnight New Year’s plan for Pakistanis.
Head of International at Zoom, Abe Smith spoke about the arrangement and said, “Zoom is proud and honored to take part in such a monumental event with Emaar, where our platform will allow people from all over the world to participate as we ring in a new year.”
