Tulum Festivals

Updated October 24, 2026

Tulum festival season starts around New Year and runs through January, with events taking place across jungle venues, cenotes, beach clubs and other locations around Tulum.

The 2027 calendar is already taking shape. 7 Realms, ¿PorQuéNo?, Tehmplo, Day Zero and Arena Festival have confirmed dates, while Zamna has confirmed five nights from December 31 to January 10. You can find more information about Zamna with dates, lineups, ticket tiers and tables in our Zamna Tulum guide.

This is our guide to Tulum festivals in 2027 and we will try to update it as soon as new things get announced.

Tulum music festivals confirmed for 2027

7 Realms - January 1 - 13, 2027

7 Realms is a new festival created by Tulum Bible, taking place across seven dates from January 1 to 13, 2027. Every other day, the festival moves to different locations around Tulum, with each realm built around its own setting, music and collaborators.

We created 7 Realms to bring more of Tulum into festival season. Instead of keeping everything inside one festival ground, the series will connect people with local venues, hotels and businesses across town while giving each event a completely different setting and vibe. All seven events take place during the day, leaving the nights open for the rest of Tulum’s January calendar.

There is also a points system running alongside the festival. People can earn points by inviting friends, completing challenges, checking in at participating local venues and attending the realms themselves. Those points can be used for rewards including discounted and free tickets, drinks and upgrades, while top earners win additional prizes.

The seven dates are January 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 and 13, but the realms, locations, collaborators and lineups will be revealed gradually one by one.

Zamna Festival Tulum 2027

Zamna’s 10th-anniversary season runs from December 31, 2026 to January 10, 2027. It is not one festival with one ticket: each night is a separate event at the same jungle venue, with its own lineup and tickets. The Zamna Multipass covers three nights for anyone planning to go to several.

VIP and Backstage tables: booked through Tulum Bible, with prices and floor plans on each event page. How Zamna tables work.

Arena Festival returns for its 15th anniversary with five days of events across Playa del Carmen and Tulum.

The 2027 edition is planned around eight parties and more than 30 DJs, with events spread across different venues rather than one festival ground. The artist lineup is being revealed progressively.

Other January programmes in Tulum

Not everything happening during festival season fits neatly into a conventional festival format.

Bonding Season — December 31, 2026 to January 10, 2027

Bonding Season returns to Be Tulum over New Year, bringing together music, wellbeing and other programming across the hotel group’s Tulum properties.

It runs from December 31 through January 10. Unlike a normal ticketed festival, access to the included parties and events is primarily built around guests staying with Be Destination, so check the accommodation and access conditions before planning around it.

Dates: December 31, 2026–January 10, 2027
Location: Be Tulum
Format: Music, wellbeing and hotel programming
Access: TBA

Tulum festivals beyond January

January gets most of the international attention, but Tulum has smaller festivals throughout the year covering food, local culture, art, wellness and nature.

Several of these have already taken place or have confirmed 2026 editions, while their 2027 dates are still waiting to be announced.

Tulum Food, Spirits & Wine Festival + Rising Phoenix

The Tulum Food, Spirits & Wine Festival returns for its fourth edition in November 2026, this time alongside the new Rising Phoenix wellness, health and fitness festival.

The six-day programme is planned across different locations in Tulum, including beaches, cenotes, restaurants, hotels and wellness spaces. Rather than being only a restaurant festival, the programme combines guest-chef dinners and mixology with fitness events, yoga, cycling, running, sound sessions, art and music.

It is one of the more interesting festivals to watch if you are visiting Tulum outside the January electronic music season.

Next confirmed edition: November 2026
Focus: Food, wellness, fitness, art and music

Horizontes Mexicanos

Horizontes Mexicanos is a cultural project created in Tulum around contemporary Mexican art.

Its second edition runs from November 4–21, 2026, bringing a new group of Mexican artists to create murals, exhibitions and public art around town. One of the interesting parts of the project is that the work remains in Tulum after the festival itself ends.

Latest confirmed edition: November 4–21, 2026
Focus: Mexican artists, murals and public art
