As per business magazine ‘Arabian Business’, the starting rate for a three-minute display is (UAE Dirham) AED 250,000 during weekdays from 8-10 p.m. and rises to AED 350,000 over weekends.

Two three-minute promotions between 8 and 10 p.m. on any night will cost AED 500,000. Pay AED 1 million and “you can get five three minute impressions any night between 7 and midnight.”

The skyscraper is one of the most popular media spaces for properties to advertise themselves on a global scale.
