As they say, the show must go on.

The high-octane acrobatic water show, located in Dubai, will reopen after implementing stringent safety measures for guests and employees.

Scroll through the gallery above to see how staff having been preparing for the venue's reopening.

This includes introducing limited capacity seating, meaning visitors won't be able to select where they sit. However, groups of people will be able to sit together but they'll have empty seats besides, in front and behind them to maintain social distance.

Efforts will also be made to sanitise and disinfect the entire theatre, including the lobby and restrooms, before and after each show using aerosol ULV foggers.

Also, as per UAE law, all guests are required to wear masks to the show and throughout the venue. While they can be removed when eating, guests are recommended to keep them on during the actual performance as well.

Food and beverages will also be available but can only be consumed while seated in the theatre and contactless payment is advised.

The shows will be performed daily at 6pm and 9pm. In a bid to minimise contact, tickets will be paperless, sent by email to guests.
