Emaar is hosting a competition for UAE-based artists to design video or animation projections for the Burj Khalifa. The open call runs from May 6 to 26, 2025, inviting local creatives to submit original designs that showcase innovation, creativity, and Dubai's cultural richness. The winning design will be displayed on the iconic skyscraper.

Submissions must be three-minute projections and adhere to specific technical guidelines, including resolution and formatting, which are detailed on the Burj Khalifa website. Artists are required to send their entries to [email protected], along with a brief concept description. The selected artist will receive a prize of Dh100,000.
