New Year’s Day will bring many things. Well-wishers and revellers will gather at tourist spots and significant sites around the UAE to mark the arrival of 2018 with a bang, as they come together to watch one of the official fireworks displays. Some residents and citizens will, undoubtedly, baton down the hatches on the evening of December 31 and wake up with a little trepidation in their hearts the following morning as the country says hello not just to a new year but to a new era as well, with the introduction of value added tax. Many others, one suspects, will make a more literal step into the unknown by heading down to Dubai’s newest attraction, the Dubai Frame, which opens on January 1. Billed as a new year’s gift to the public, it promises to be a little different.
