A spin-off of the original Cancun location, the Playa del Carmen Coco Bongo upholds the same entertainment standards but is set in the Riviera Maya (about an hour’s drive south of Cancun). Book tickets for a night that includes hours of world-class entertainment, unlimited drinks, and round-trip transportation from your hotel. Or, treat yourself to a “gold member” ticket including perks such as skip-the-line privileges and reserved seating.
Coco Bongo is a must for clubbing and live entertainment enthusiasts.
Coco Bongo is wheelchair-accessible, and tables are available.
The show doesn’t start until 11pm, so prepare to stay up late.
The club is located close to dining and other clubbing options in downtown Playa del Carmen.
Located on 10th Avenue just off the main tourist strip in Playa del Carmen, Coco Bongo is an easy walk from many downtown accommodations. Additionally, some Coco Bongo package deals include round-trip transport from your hotel. If you walk to the club but want a ride home, you’ll find plenty of taxis waiting outside at closing time.
The show runs from 11pm to 3:30am, with doors opening at 10:30pm. Arrive early to secure a spot in line (unless you have a gold member ticket). For fewer crowds, avoid going during holidays or university breaks.
The allure of a night out in Playa del Carmen is what draws many travelers to the popular oceanside hub. Lined with bars, restaurants, and dance clubs, the main pedestrian street (5th Avenue) is usually crowded with tourists enjoying flashy beverages, and salespeople hawking souvenirs. While some bars are open all day, the clubs don’t come alive until late at night, when you can find everything from Vegas-style shows to traditional Mexican nightclubs.
