Aerial & Aquatic Acrobatics

The heart of La Perle lies in its daring performances. 65+ world-class artists from over 23 countries showcase acts that push human limits. Divers plunge from 25-meter heights into the on-stage pool, while acrobats soar through the air with breathtaking precision.

Each act is carefully choreographed to represent different aspects of Dubai’s identity. The show weaves its heritage of pearl diving with its futuristic rise as a global hub.

This experience was the highlight of our short vacation to Dubai! Booking on Thrillark website was super easy and they sent a driver to pick us up at our hotel. The driver's name was Comando, and he told us all about Dubai, and he was really knowledgeable, which made our trip enjoyable. When you book with them tell them to send you to Comando ????
