The Burj Khalifa Lit Up Blue Last Night For A Very Worthy Cause
The Burj Khalifa was illuminated blue yesterday, in association with Autism Awareness Day.
Autism affects 1 in 68 children.
In honour of Autism Awareness Day, the world took part in the #LightItUpBlue campaign with Dubai’s most famous landmark following suit.

It’s not the first time that the Burj Khalifa has used its high profile in commemoration
The Burj lit up for Indian National flag to celebrate India’s 68th Republic Day
And to honour those from the 2015 Paris attacks
It also lit up pink for Breast Cancer Awareness day last year
