The highlight of the evening was a drone show, featuring a synchronised display of drones that formed images celebrating Maldivian culture and landscapes. The festivities also included traditional performances such as “bodu beru” drumming and the Maldivian folk dance “dhafi negun.”

As the clock struck midnight, a fireworks display lit up the night sky, marking the start of 2025.
