The First Night of 2027, Indoors in the Hotel Zone
Maxi Meraki opens the new year at Bonbonniere Tulum on Friday, January 1, 2027. He is a Belgian melodic house DJ and producer, and the night runs on melodic house and deep grooves. Miul and Fer Delgado play warm-up sets to open, so the room builds before the headline arrives. This is an indoor club night rather than a beach or jungle party: a closed room with a roof that opens to the sky. Music runs from 10 PM. General entry starts at MXN $800, and tables start at MXN $40,000 plus service for ten guests.
Who Is Maxi Meraki
Maxi Meraki has released on Spinnin' Deep, MoBlack, Abracadabra and Artbat's UPPERGROUND, and he runs his own label, Radiate. He remixed RÜFÜS DU SOL's "Music Is Better", and he has played Tomorrowland and Amsterdam Dance Event. His sets mix emotive melodies with a steady, driving energy. On the first night of the year, that fits the room: warm build-ups early, deeper grooves as the floor fills. Miul and Fer Delgado set the tone before he takes over.
The Room: Funktion-One and a Retractable Roof
Bonbonniere is the only true indoor electronic club on Tulum's hotel strip, at km 4 on the Tulum–Boca Paila road. It is a red-lit room with a Funktion-One sound system and a roof that retracts to open the room to the sky. Mezzanine VIP tables sit above the dance floor, so table guests look down onto the crowd. The club ranks among the DJ Mag Top 100 Clubs, and the magazine singled out the sound system and the retractable roof. The programme here is house, tech-house, Afro-house and techno, with past guests including Maceo Plex, Jamie Jones, Joseph Capriati and Damian Lazarus. Early January is the club's biggest stretch of the season.
General Entry and Backstage Access
General early bird entry is MXN $800 and gets you into the venue and the event at any time. Backstage Access is MXN $3,000, with backstage access to the venue and the event at any time. Neither ticket includes a table, drinks, tips or transport. If you want a guaranteed spot to sit and a place to put drinks, you need a table instead of a general ticket.
Tables for Groups of Ten
Every table covers entry for ten guests, and the price goes towards food and drink at your table. Silver and Green Room tables are MXN $40,000 plus 15% service. Gold is MXN $50,000, Platinum MXN $60,000 and Diamond MXN $80,000, each plus 15% service. The Backstage table is MXN $100,000 plus service. Tables cannot add extra guests, so a group larger than ten needs a second table, and a table's exact spot is not guaranteed.
Dress Code and What to Bring
The dress code is formal and elegant, and the door enforces it. No sandals, swimwear or sportswear, and men need closed shoes. Shorts, tank tops, caps and hats are turned away. Bring the physical card you paid with and a valid photo ID, as both are checked at the door. Entry is for guests aged 18 and over.
Getting There and Booking
Bonbonniere Tulum sits on the Carretera estatal Tulum–Boca Paila in the Hotel Zone, a short taxi ride from downtown. Valet parking is available if you drive. Doors open at 10 PM and the music runs late on the first night of the year. Book your ticket or a table with the button on this page, and a payment link is sent to you. Arrive early, since the floor fills on peak January nights.
