Artists and creatives across the UAE now have more time to light up the world’s tallest building.
Emaar has officially extended the deadline for the Burj Khalifa Projection Design Competition to 26 June 2025, responding to the overwhelming enthusiasm the open call has received. The extension gives both seasoned and emerging talents a greater chance to compete for a coveted spot on the landmark’s towering LED facade.
At stake is not just a remarkable AED 100,000 cash prize, but also the rare opportunity for the winning design to be showcased on the iconic Burj Khalifa—offering unmatched exposure to a global audience.
Participants are required to submit an original video or animation lasting three minutes, capturing themes of creativity, innovation, and the dynamic identity of Dubai. All entries must align with the building’s technical projection standards.
Those interested must send their submissions and a brief concept description to opencall@emaar.ae. Full competition details and technical guidelines can be found at www.burjkhalifa.ae/open-call.
Emaar emphasized that this initiative is part of its broader effort to support artistic expression and offer creatives a stage as grand as their vision.
