Nightlife in Punta Cana | Palladium Hotel Group

Dive into the nighttime enchantment of Punta Cana.

Punta Cana vibrates on the beach during the day, but at night the rhythm continues. Though bachata is king on the streets of Punta Cana, you can also hear merengue, salsa, reggaeton and the international hymns of the electronic scene. Music, dance and celebration are part of the Dominican essence. After a day resting on the beach or exploring the nature parks, you can choose between staying to enjoy the magnificent shows put on each night at the all inclusive resorts or going deeper into the Caribbean night by visiting some of the most emblematic clubs of the Dominican Republic. Here are the must-see events.

Coco Bongo Punta Cana

Coco Bongo Punta Cana has become a destination in itself. Every night a Las Vegas style amphitheater combines acrobatics, dancers who hang from dizzying heights, and actors who perform Hollywood-style choreography, with backgrounds featuring images on giant screens, explosions of light, tributes to the pop greats (Michael Jackson, Madonna or the Beatles), confetti showers and bubbles. Between the shows, the best international DJs liven up the evening with all genres of music for dancing on a square boxing ring style floor packed with people having a good time. If you want to have the full experience, we recommend getting the Gold Member ticket for 105 dollars (115 if it’s Friday or Saturday), which ensures you express entry (skipping the endless lines), access to the VIP area and premium drinks.

Imagine

In a spectacular natural cave is hidden one of the best clubs in Punta Cana: Imagine. The most characteristic element of this dance bar is that the stages and dance floors are connected through age-old tunnels dug in the rock itself, creating a surreal environment unique on the island. As well as concerts by artists from all over the world, Imagine offers theme parties of Latin classics and the best of urban music or Open Formats, with generational hymns from every latitude. One of the perks of this club is that it has a hotel pickup service you can reserve when you buy your ticket for just 12 dollars more, which will take you back to your destination at the end of the party so you have nothing to worry about.

Chic Cabaret Punta Cana

Without a doubt, this is one of the best shows in Punta Cana, and you don’t even have to leave the hotel. Immerse yourself in the glamor and magic of the 1920s and travel to the present day in a journey through the history of music, from every era. At the Chic Cabaret & Restaurant, there is a party every night where flavors, music and dance come together to a Caribbean rhythm. Its offers gourmet dishes, welcome cocktails and three hours of an energetic show. A lovely evening to enjoy as a couple or with a group of friends.

Movie Disco Club

Previously called Legacy Club, this is the only club in Punta Cana that opens until sunrise. If you like to have a good time dancing until 6 in the morning, this is the place for you. At this club, located in Playa Bávaro, you will enjoy hip hop and Latin music. If you are planning to go, it is a good idea to make a reservation in advance, especially on the busiest nights.
