Guests on the Ain Dubai will be able to take in panoramic views over the Palm Jumeirah and the winder United Arab Emirates form a height of 250 metres.
The attraction is currently under construction.
The eighth and final 450-tonne temporary spoke was removed from the structure and the last of the permanent spoke cables installed earlier.
