Dec 17 NOCTURNAL Tulum ### ### About NOCTURNAL NOCTURNAL in Tulum is a modern open-air nightclub and social music venue that brings a tropical twist to electronic nightlife. Nestled in downtown Tulum, it fuses jungle ambience with cutting-edge club technology. Described as “a realm where the lush tropics meet the electric energy of nightlife,” it offers an immersive audio-visual experience in a natural setting [www.ticketfairy.com](https://www.ticketfairy.com/events-in-tulum-/nocturnal#:~:text=Imagine%20stepping%20into%20a%20realm,adventures%20into%20sound%20and%20space). The design blends natural materials (bamboo, wood, plants) with state-of-the-art sound and lighting systems, creating a “stunning natural ambiance” that’s become a draw for both locals and visitors [www.ticketfairy.com](https://www.ticketfairy.com/events-in-tulum-/nocturnal#:~:text=Imagine%20stepping%20into%20a%20realm,adventures%20into%20sound%20and%20space). While exact capacity isn’t publicly listed, NOCTURNAL appears to fit a few hundred people on its dance floor, making it a mid-size venue. The club has quickly earned a reputation as one of Tulum’s notable nightlife spots, known for its inclusive “strictly vibes” atmosphere. Guests rave about its easygoing, friendly energy – one reviewer noted it’s “friendly to all patrons of ANY persuasion” and “there’s something for everyone” in the music mix . In short, NOCTURNAL matters to the Tulum scene because it delivers high-quality club nights under the jungle sky, bridging beach-bar culture with a dedicated downtown party space. ### Events and Programming NOCTURNAL hosts a variety of nighttime events, mainly focused on electronic music, drawing both international DJs and local artists. The club is known for techno and house nights, as well as special genre mash-ups. For example, one dance series featured deep house, techno and even live bands, attracting a diverse crowd [www.ticketfairy.com](https://www.ticketfairy.com/events-in-tulum-/nocturnal#:~:text=NOCTURNAL%20Tulum%27s%20reputation%20for%20hosting,air%20setting%20allows%20for%20a). Resident and touring DJs from Mexico and abroad regularly play here. In January 2023, the venue ran nightly events with different acts – DJs like Dr. Mañoso, Igor Stelea, and Lagunes Jr Demerry each headlined separate club shows [www.ticketfairy.com](https://www.ticketfairy.com/event/dr-manoso-dr-agujas#:~:text=DR%20MA%C3%91OSO%20%28dr) [www.ticketfairy.com](https://www.ticketfairy.com/event/11-enero#:~:text=Igor%20Stelea) [www.ticketfairy.com](https://www.ticketfairy.com/event/lagunes-jr-demerry#:~:text=Lagunes%20Jr%20Demerry). These booking pages show 11:30 PM start times on consecutive dates, implying a full lineup of weekly parties. Outside techno/house, NOCTURNAL occasionally embraces Latin influences; reviewers note a mix of tech-house and reggaeton beats to keep everyone dancing . Recurring bookings often coincide with festivals or peak season: for instance, on Sunday April 16th (year), NOCTURNAL teamed up with Redlof Records to present a dedicated techno showcase featuring acts Mosher and Eric James . Typically the club runs events most weekends (and special mid-week programming around holidays), so guests can expect at least one or two nights of action each week. Notable past lineups include regional DJs from Mexico City and the Caribbean scene, as well as guest spots by international artists. Ticket prices for these events can vary widely – some nights offer free or low-cost entry, while big-name bookings might charge a cover. In short, NOCTURNAL’s calendar is anchored in electronic dance music (techno, house, progressive) but remains eclectic enough that every event feels fresh and lively. ### Tickets and Booking Tickets for NOCTURNAL events are usually sold through the club’s promotion channels or ticketing partners. Official online outlets (club announcements, local ticket sites) often put tickets on sale a few weeks in advance of major nights. However, many Nocturnal nights are free or very low-cost entry – in fact, travelers note that entry is often free even when the floor is packed . When tickets are required, they can range roughly from a few hundred pesos (~$10–20 USD) for smaller DJs up to higher rates for international acts. The best strategy for popular shows is to check NOCTURNAL’s social media or local event listings early and grab presale tickets, as door sales may sell out. There is no traditional box office; instead, tickets are sold online or at local promoters. If you’re buying at the door, arrive early (around opening time) to beat any line. Note that on busy nights, organizers may enforce wristbands or guest lists, so coming on time is safer. In summary, many party-goers simply walk in without a ticket, but for sure-mark events plan to buy through the advertised outlets ahead of time. If you do need a ticket, look for certified sellers (avoid street scalpers) and be ready for tiered pricing (general admission vs. VIP access). Nocturnal does not use outside ticket platforms (like Ticketmaster), so rely on local guides or the venue’s announcements for legitimate tickets. ### Seating and Layout NOCTURNAL’s layout is primarily standing-room dance floor with minimal fixed seating. The DJ booth and dance floor occupy the center, surrounded by open-air jungle decor. There are typically bar areas at the sides and maybe a few high tables or scattered lounge seats along the perimeter, but most guests dance on the floor. If any VIP tables or seating areas exist, they are usually pushed to the back or corners; most people simply stand or dance. The venue’s open design means there are no obstructed views – however, for best sound and sightlines you’ll want to be on the main floor. Those near the DJ console will hear every beat clearly (the club’s professional sound system ensures crisp audio). Areas near the bar are good for people-watching but slightly further from the speakers. Some guests prefer to stand center-midway from the stage, where the bass is full but not overwhelming. In general, all spots on the floor have a good view of the DJ, since there are no pillars or balconies blocking the stage. The only spots to avoid might be too close to the entryway or speakers (which can be loud). In short, treat NOCTURNAL like an outdoor festival venue: join the crowd on the floor, and you’ll have the quintessential club experience. There is no formal seating chart – it’s 100% general admission dancing, with any benches or stools given to VIP ticket holders or late-night loungers. Acoustically, the design keeps the sound well-balanced in the center of the venue, so that is where the music comes through best. ### Getting There and Parking NOCTURNAL is located in downtown Tulum (Colonia Centro). The address is listed as Calle 5 Sur (south) at the corner of Sol Oriente, though the venue is set back inside the block (departamento 304, building). This puts it just a couple of blocks from the main ADO bus terminal on Avenida Tulum . For visitors flying in, the nearest airport is Cancún International, about 118 km away – roughly a 1.5-hour drive by taxi or shuttle . From Cancún or Playa del Carmen, you can take the ADO bus directly to Tulum’s central station (in town), then walk or grab a local taxi to NOCTURNAL. Within Tulum, there is no subway or tram – most partygoers rely on local taxis, colectivos (shared vans), or rented bicycles/scooters. Note that rideshare apps like Uber are not permitted in Tulum, so plan on taxis or pre-arranged shuttles instead. Driving by car is possible but parking is limited; there’s no dedicated lot for the club. Street parking is available in the center around midnight, but it fills up quickly. Some nearby businesses have small paid lots, but the safest option is to take a cab or bike in. If you do drive, look for side streets or public parking garages a few blocks away (fees are usually minimal). Rideshare services and app-based taxis (like Didi) do operate, but coverage can be spotty late at night. The best advice is to rely on local taxi stands or ride arrangements. For public transit, the mention of Calle 5 Sur also indicates it’s easy to reach on foot from the town center; the ADO bus stop and most hotels are within a short walk or cheap cab ride. Lastly, remember that Tulum enforces a nightlife curfew (see Tips below), so plan your arrival and departure accordingly. ### Inside the Venue When you enter NOCTURNAL, expect a relaxed tropical club atmosphere. Security will check your ID since the club is 18+ only [www.ticketfairy.com](https://www.ticketfairy.com/event/dr-manoso-dr-agujas#:~:text=Saturday%2C%2028%20January%202023%2011%3A30,PM) – bring a government-issued ID for proof of age. The dress code is casual but stylish: think beach-chic or summer clubwear (many patrons wear light, airy outfits or linen shirts). No dance heels or formal wear needed. Once inside, you’ll find a full bar serving craft cocktails, fresh juices, mezcal and tequila specialties, as well as bottles of beer. Customers praise the drink selection and bartenders – one review specifically mentions “well balanced drinks” and friendly, attentive staff . The bar area is usually lively; if it’s crowded, you might need to wait a few minutes for service. Restrooms are available on-site; expect basic (and clean) facilities typical of a club – but be prepared for a short line during peak hours. Other indoor features include mood lighting, LED effects, and possibly projections or live FX that sync to the music. The club’s production quality is high: audio runs through a professional sound system that keeps bass clear without distortion, and lighting covers the entire space for an immersive vibe. There’s no coat check (it’s a warm climate club), so plan to carry valuables or leave them at your hotel. Note that Wi-Fi may be limited; cell reception in town is generally good (most guests use mobile data). Photography is allowed on smartphones, so feel free to snap pictures, but flash photography might be discouraged once shows are in full swing. Overall, the venue feels open and breathable – it’s almost like dancing in a jungle courtyard. Expect warm evenings (so dance in light layers) and a very friendly crowd. Keep an eye out for occasional exclusives like art installations or local decor that ties back to Mayan motifs – this is part of what makes the experience unique. Remember to hydrate and pace yourself; the tropical air and loud music can catch you off guard. In fact, one patron noted the music goes on “until 7-8am” on event nights – though check local curfews, as discussed below. All in all, inside NOCTURNAL you’ll find a high-energy party environment with good staff, straightforward amenities (drinks and bathrooms), and a lush open-air atmosphere under the stars. ### Nearby Amenities Since NOCTURNAL is in downtown Tulum (often called “Tulum Pueblo”), the area is full of conveniences. If you arrive early, there are many restaurants and cafes just minutes away for pre-show dining. Popular choices include Raw Love Cafe or Burrito Amor on Avenida Tulum for casual breakfast/lunch before the night, or places like Sale e Pepe (Italian) and El Vegetariano for dinner. For quick bites, local taco stands and panaderias line the streets. Bar options nearby include cozy lounges and mezcal bars; for example, Café 1910 and Batey Mojito Bar are well-liked for craft cocktails a block away. There are even rooftop bars within walking distance where you can enjoy a drink and live music before heading to the club. For accommodations, downtown (just blocks around the venue) has options from budget hostels to boutique hotels. Notable spots include Casa Tulum Hotel and Selina Tulum downtown; there’s also an abundance of charming small inns and guesthouses. Many of these are within a short walk, meaning you can stumble back after the party if needed. Late-night transport is relatively easy downtown: taxi stands are plentiful, and some local buses/colectivos run through the night (though not very late due to curfew). If you’re staying on the beach side of town, estimate a $5–10 taxi ride back. Otherwise, it’s feasible to walk home if you’re already lodging in Centro – just use well-lit streets and watch for late-night traffic. In summary, you won’t go hungry or thirsty before or after NOCTURNAL. Cafes like Raw Love (great juices and coffee), dinner spots on Avenida Tulum, and nearby bars mean you can build a whole night out around the venue. Just remember to pace your evening so you arrive at the club before its midnight closing (curfew applies – see below). ### What Makes This Venue Special NOCTURNAL stands out from other Tulum clubs because of its unique jungle-club aesthetic and year-round urban location. Unlike many Tulum venues that are beachfront beach bars or seasonal, NOCTURNAL is a purpose-built downtown music venue that captures the area’s bohemian soul. Its open-roof design merges the rainforest vibe with high-energy electronic music, a combination guests describe as a “seamless blend of natural beauty and pulsating beats” [www.ticketfairy.com](https://www.ticketfairy.com/events-in-tulum-/nocturnal#:~:text=NOCTURNAL%20Tulum%27s%20reputation%20for%20hosting,that%27s%20both%20intimate%20and%20exhilarating). In effect, you dance under the stars among palm fronds and art installations – it feels like an intimate festival stage in the jungle. Architecturally, the club uses organic materials and artful lighting to create an immersive space. Bright neon signs, tribal artwork, and lush greenery decorate the dance floor and bars. Historically, it’s one of the few permanent nightclubs in Tulum’s town center (most big parties used to rely on pop-up venues or beach resorts). This gives it cultural impact: it has quickly become a symbol of Tulum’s nightlife renaissance and community hub for music lovers. Musically, the venue is also notable for its adventurous line-ups. For example, the club’s programming doesn’t just replay commercial hits – it curates "underground" techno showcases alongside more accessible sets. As one reviewer put it, Nocturnal delivers “the music you want” – from deep tech-house to bass-driven Latin rhythms – so that the energy “never dipped” all night . These sold-out parties and packed dance floors have cemented its reputation. Moreover, NOCTURNAL has hosted some memorable moments in the local scene, such as early 2023 residencies and collaborative events with well-known promoters (e.g. Redlof Records). On a local level, it thrives on community spirit; staff emphasize friendliness and inclusion, making everyone feel welcome regardless of background. Even its motto “strictly vibes” has become a local hashtag. Finally, Tulum’s culture of late-night liberalism (fueled by New Age and music tourism) finds a home here – NOCTURNAL respects that free-spirited vibe while still maintaining professionalism. In essence, what makes NOCTURNAL special is that it captures the heart of Tulum’s nightlife in one venue: it’s as natural as the jungle around it and as electric as the beats it plays, giving both artists and audiences a distinctive, high-quality party experience that is truly “Tulum style.” ### Visitor Tips and Information **Accessibility:** NOCTURNAL’s entrance is at street level, but because it’s an older open-air building, wheelchair access may be limited (step up at the door). If accessibility is a concern, check with the venue directly. Inside, the floor space is wide and mostly flat dirt or concrete, but some areas might be uneven. **Age and ID:** The club strictly enforces a 18+ age policy [www.ticketfairy.com](https://www.ticketfairy.com/event/dr-manoso-dr-agujas#:~:text=Saturday%2C%2028%20January%202023%2011%3A30,PM). Make sure to carry a valid photo ID (passport or driver’s license) – it is required at the door. There is usually a quick security check. **What to Bring:** Only bring essentials: your ID, some cash and a card, and your phone. There’s no coat check, so large bags or items might be turned away. Most drink orders can be paid by card or cash; however, carrying some pesos is wise in case the bar or taxi drivers only accept cash. Packaging rules: outside food and alcohol are not allowed. If you need water between drinks, it’s best to buy bottled water at the bar. **Dress Code:** There’s no formal dress code, but Tulum style is laid-back-chic. Comfortable shoes are a must (dancing on dirt/cement!). Lightweight, breathable fabrics are recommended because it can get hot. A light wrap can help for late-night breezes. Leave standard cover-ups behind – swimsuits or towels aren’t needed inside. **Cameras & Recording:** Smartphone photography is fine (good memories or Instagram!) but be respectful of others. Profoto strobes or tripods would likely be unwelcome. Occasionally the club may host professional photo or video shoots – in those cases, follow staff instructions. **Smoking:** Since NOCTURNAL is mostly open-air, smoking is commonly allowed (though always ask staff). There is no penalty for smoking in the main dance areas, which keeps the air fresh. **Arrival:** Doors typically open around 11 PM. To secure a spot near the front or to socialize at the bar, arrive early (11–11:30 PM). Weekends and holiday periods get very busy, so expecting a line or wait is wise. **Music and Crowd:** Come in the mood to dance! The crowd is international and local – very friendly and accepting. Expect a mix of partygoers and music aficionados. Nocturnal is known for its inclusive attitude – a review praised it as being “friendly to all patrons of ANY persuasion” . This laid-back vibe means no strict “VIP only” sections eat up the energy; everyone shares the dance floor. **Policies:** Officially, loud music must stop by 12:00 a.m. each night due to local ordinance . In practice, the club often winds down around that time. Lighting will be turned off by 1:00 a.m. by law . So if you want to party late, plan to dance early and be prepared for an end-of-night curfew. Finally, always follow staff instructions (fire safety rules, capacity limits). Tipping bartenders is appreciated (10–15% on drinks). Most importantly, stay hydrated and apply insect repellent if needed (mosquitoes can be present on calm nights). **Don’ts:** Don’t come expecting table service everywhere – it’s primarily a dance venue. Don’t bring valuables for storage, since lockers aren’t provided. And don’t overdress for cold conditions – it stays warm. By following these tips, you’ll fit right in and enjoy a smooth, memorable night at NOCTURNAL Tulum. ### Frequently Asked Questions #### How do I get tickets for events at NOCTURNAL Tulum?

NOCTURNAL is in downtown Tulum (Tulum Centro). The club’s address is on Calle 5 Sur at the corner of Sol Oriente , which is just a few blocks from the main ADO bus station on Avenida Tulum. From the airport or hotels: Cancún Airport is ~118 km away (about 1.5 hours by taxi) ; take a shuttle or ADO bus to Tulum town and then a short taxi or walk downtown. Within Tulum, you can also take a taxi, bike, or scooter directly to Centro and ask locals for “Nocturnal Tulum” if needed. #### Is there parking available at NOCTURNAL Tulum? There is no dedicated parking lot for the club. Downtown Tulum has limited street parking (metered or private spots) that fills up quickly at night. It’s best to taxi or bike instead of driving. If you do bring a car, look for public lots or safe street parking a few blocks away (some spaces may only be a 5–10 minute walk). Since parking can be tight, many guests prefer drop-off by cab or returning home via taxi after the night. #### Can I use public transportation to reach NOCTURNAL? Yes. The ADO bus line runs from Cancun, Playa del Carmen, and other cities to Tulum’s central bus station, which is only a short walk from NOCTURNAL. Once in Tulum, local colectivos (sharing vans) and taxis can drop you very close to the venue. There is no metro in Tulum, but you can also rent a bike or scooter since it’s a flat, bike-friendly town. Just note that services like Uber aren’t available here, so plan on local taxi or shuttle services for the last leg. #### What is the seating arrangement at NOCTURNAL? NOCTURNAL is mostly standing-room on a single large dance floor. There are no assigned seats. A few high-top tables or minimal lounge seating may be along the edges for VIP ticket holders, but the general admission area is open. Guests spread out across the floor or near the bar. For a good view and sound, many stand toward the center of the room. You won’t be “seated” on a show night — expect to mingle, dance, and move freely. #### Are there VIP or exclusive areas in NOCTURNAL? Since NOCTURNAL is essentially one open floor, there aren’t formal private boxes or balconies. There may occasionally be VIP tables or roped-off sections for premium guests, but these are usually the same floor space, just marked off. Most of the club’s charm is in community dancing. If there is a “VIP” section, it’s typically near the stage or bar with special service. In general, everyone shares the dance floor and can draw near the DJ equally. #### What dress code does NOCTURNAL Tulum enforce? The vibe is casual tropical clubwear. Think breathable fabrics, summer dresses or linen shirts – comfortable for dancing. Many guests wear sandals or even go barefoot on the dance floor (just watch for the ground). Jackets or formal attire are not needed. The key is to be comfortable and stylish, not formal. Avoid swimsuits or beach towels (you’re off the sand now). Hats and sunglasses aren’t useful inside. If you’re unsure, observe that other patrons dress for warm evenings – so light layers and sneakers/sandals are perfect. #### What items are prohibited at NOCTURNAL Tulum? Rules at the door are standard: no weapons, no large bags or coolers, and no outside food or alcohol. Non-professional photography (phones) is fine, but if you have DSLR cameras or video equipment, ask staff first. Many clubs in Tulum forbid smoking only in enclosed areas, but NOCTURNAL is open-air so smoking on the dance floor or patio is usually allowed. (The local noise ordinance *does* require music to stop by midnight , but you can smoke any time.) Masks or coverings aren’t mandated. Basically, just carry light personal items, keep your hands empty, and plan to buy drinks inside rather than bring stash. #### Does NOCTURNAL have food and drink services? Yes, a bar serves most nights. Expect a full drink menu: specialty cocktails (often featuring mezcal or local fruit), tequila shots, beer, and mixers. Prices are on par with other clubs in Tulum (cocktails generally around 150–250 pesos, beers ~60–100 pesos). The focus is on drinks and dancing – there’s usually no kitchen for full meals. On busy nights you might also find food trucks or small snack bars outside the club. Otherwise, eat before arriving. Staff are known to be friendly and quick; in reviews people mention “attentive staff, well balanced drinks” and fast service even when busy . #### Are the facilities (like restrooms) at NOCTURNAL visitor-friendly? Facilities are basic but functional. There are separate men’s and women’s bathrooms (no unisex. Bring some cash: sometimes a token fee is charged in Tulum, though often they’re free). Because space is limited, lines can form during set breaks, so plan accordingly. Nocturnal’s restrooms are cleaned regularly, but this is a busy club, so don’t expect a luxury lounge. Note there is no coat check or luggage storage, so travel light. If you need to stow an item, ask security – some may hold tiny valuables for short periods. Otherwise, treat the venue as suitcases-free. The main indoor area houses a large bar and TV screens, but outside seating is minimal. In short: basic toilets, a bar, and a dance floor. #### Is NOCTURNAL wheelchair accessible? Because NOCTURNAL is partially outdoors and built on older property, full ADA compliance may not be guaranteed. The entrance is flat to street level (no big steps), and the dance floor is flat dirt/concrete. However, some pathways or entrances might be narrow. It’s the best to call ahead and ask how they can accommodate any mobility needs. Generally, a wheelchair user would be able to enter and move around the main dance area, but options like an accessible restroom are unlikely. If you or someone in your party has accessibility needs, touch base with staff before arriving. #### What kind of music and events can I expect at NOCTURNAL? Primarily electronic music: think deep house, techno, progressive, and open-format sets that cover multiple genres. Events range from underground techno showcases to lively dance parties with Latin influence. For example, one event series was billed as covering “deep house to techno” and even live band fusion [www.ticketfairy.com](https://www.ticketfairy.com/events-in-tulum-/nocturnal#:~:text=NOCTURNAL%20Tulum%27s%20reputation%20for%20hosting,air%20setting%20allows%20for%20a). DJs like Mosher, Eric James, Dr. Mañoso, Igor Stelea and others have played there. Still, you might hear occasional reggaeton or pop remixes mixed in (as one fan pointed out, the blend “ensured there was something for everyone” ). Keep in mind Tulum’s seasonal festivals: during peak season (Dec–Jan) NOCTURNAL often hosts daily parties. Off-season it settles to weekends. Either way, expect energetic global beats that will keep the dance floor moving until closing. #### Should I reserve a spot or arrive early? No formal reservations are needed (there are no numbered seats). That said, if you want a specific spot, come when doors open. Many guests arrive by 11–11:30 PM to stake out a place near the DJ or bar. This also helps in grabbing a table or stool if you prefer sitting. On heavy nights, the club can fill up, so early arrival means less hassle. If you're planning around a well-known act, definitely arrive early. Otherwise, on most nights you can get in later, though late arrivals close to midnight risk missing the show or only getting the end, due to local curfews . #### What should I bring with me to NOCTURNAL Tulum? Bring essentials only. You’ll need a valid ID to prove you are 18 or older (no entry without it [www.ticketfairy.com](https://www.ticketfairy.com/event/dr-manoso-dr-agujas#:~:text=Saturday%2C%2028%20January%202023%2011%3A30,PM)). Carry some cash in pesos plus a card for purchases. A small crossbody bag or wallet is fine; large backpacks or items will likely be turned away. Pack bug spray and a light outer layer just in case. A camera phone for pictures, comfortable shoes, and maybe earplugs if you are noise-sensitive. Most importantly, bring a party mindset – NOCTURNAL is about music and community. Leave valuables at your hotel. Repeat: ID, cash/card, and nothing bulky. #### What famous DJs or acts have played at NOCTURNAL? Since its opening, NOCTURNAL has featured a mix of Mexican and international DJs. For example, it once hosted top local house DJs like Dr. Mañoso (Dr. Agujas) and rising talents like Igor Stelea and Lagunes Jr Demerry on consecutive nights [www.ticketfairy.com](https://www.ticketfairy.com/event/dr-manoso-dr-agujas#:~:text=DR%20MA%C3%91OSO%20%28dr) [www.ticketfairy.com](https://www.ticketfairy.com/event/11-enero#:~:text=Igor%20Stelea) [www.ticketfairy.com](https://www.ticketfairy.com/event/lagunes-jr-demerry#:~:text=Lagunes%20Jr%20Demerry). Internationally, they’ve brought in acts through collaborations (such as Redlof Records’ techno showcase with Mosher and Eric James ). The club often participates in big Tulum festival season, drawing names from underground techno scenes. While it may not book superstars every week, it’s known for curating solid lineups that draw enthusiastic crowds whenever it does. #### Why do people enjoy going to NOCTURNAL Tulum? Guests love NOCTURNAL for its unique jungle-club vibe and welcoming atmosphere. It’s celebrated for its high-quality sound and diverse music (so the party “never dipped” ) and its blend of tropical decor and party lighting. Reviewers note its “well executed concept” and attentive staff . The inclusive, “strictly vibes” crowd means you can be yourself without judgment. Musically, it offers serious dance sets that you might not find at every other spot. In essence, it’s special because it turns Tulum’s natural beauty into a fun dance floor – a memorable experience that embodies the local party spirit. #### Is NOCTURNAL the same place as “Nocturna” rental properties or other venues? No, they are different. NOCTURNAL Tulum is a nightclub/ social club in Tulum town. It is often spelled “Nocturnal”. There is also a Tulum rental penthouse called “Nocturna” (for example, at Mun Tulum), but that is unrelated. Don’t confuse the club with similarly named hotels or vacation homes. When coming to party, look for NOCTURNAL (with an “L”) in the downtown address. --- This page is on Ticket Fairy, a ticketing, marketing and operations platform for live events and the venues that host them: festivals, club nights, concerts, conferences and tours, and night clubs, beach clubs and concert venues.
