About This Event
Mantamar New Year’s Festival is calling. Six days of iconic parties, world-class DJs, unforgettable sunsets, and the energy that makes this festival a year-end tradition at Mantamar Beach Club Bar & Sushi in Puerto Vallarta’s Zona Romántica. By day, it’s a world-class circuit pool party around the infinity pool and palapa; by night, the beach itself becomes the dance floor, with the open ocean as a permanent backdrop to full-scale production — pyrotechnics, lasers, aerial performers, go-go dancers, and elaborate staging. Anchored by the New Year’s Eve Gala on December 31.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Mantamar New Year’s Festival?
A six-day circuit pool party and nightlife festival at Mantamar Beach Club Bar & Sushi in Puerto Vallarta, running December 29 – January 3, anchored by the New Year’s Eve Gala on December 31.
Is this the same event as Mantamar Bear Week?
No. Bear Week is a separate festival Mantamar hosts during bear season — Mantamar isn’t the exclusive organizer of bear-season events in general, similar to how Brawny Bear Weekend is jointly organized by Brian Kent Productions, Mantamar, and Industry Nightclub. New Year’s Festival is its own standalone event.
Is this the same as Fairyland Music Festival?
No. Fairyland is a separate festival produced by Mantamar and DJ/producer Brian Kent, also held at Mantamar Beach Club, but on different dates.
Is this event exclusively for adults?
Yes. Mantamar Beach Club is part of Almar Resort, an adults-only property, so the New Year’s Festival is 18+ throughout.
Do I need to stay at Almar Resort to attend?
No — tickets are available to the general public. However, Almar guests get exclusive perks at Mantamar, including complimentary beach loungers, priority oceanfront lounger access, and 50% off cabanas (subject to availability). These perks do not apply during the New Year’s Eve Gala on December 31.
How much are tickets, and where can I buy them?
GA starts at $170 (+ fee) for access to all 5 events; VIP starts at $250 (+ fee) with a dedicated Will Call desk and no-line access on December 31. Prices increase after August 15. Tickets are available via Eventbrite (link above) or Almar’s Special Pre-Sale at almartickets.com.
Can I attend just one day instead of the full festival?
Online, only the All Access bracelet is sold, covering the full festival. Individual single-day passes are not available online — they’re sold at the door the day of, subject to availability.
Where should I stay for the festival?
Mantamar Beach Club is located in Zona Romántica, Puerto Vallarta’s LGBTQ+ nightlife district. Staying at Almar Resort puts you on-site with exclusive Mantamar perks; other Zona Romántica hotels keep you within walking distance of the venue and neighborhood.
