Welcome to Puerto Vallarta's liveliest website!
Entertainment 
Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - Whether you choose to listen to live music, see a show, enjoy fine food, drink some champagne, or dance the night away, Puerto Vallarta is the ideal place for those in search of the perfect New Year's Eve party. Fireworks exploding all over Banderas Bay provide an excellent backdrop for the festivities, and wherever you turn, the city is one huge party.
New Year's Eve celebrations in Puerto Vallarta are always as diverse and exciting as the population of this magnificent and vibrant city, but this year will be exceptional as PV welcomes 2018 with a world-class fireworks show, the II Festival de Pirotecnia Luminia Fest, on December 30 & 31, 2017.
Much like its rich cultural diversity, variety is the spice of life in Puerto Vallarta, and on December 31st, you'll find New Year's Eve celebrations for every taste and budget on the city's south side.
Some people choose to "take it to the streets," bar crawling or dropping in on the Olas Altas street party before grabbing a taco and heading to the beach or to Los Muertos Pier at midnight to watch the fireworks, while others choose to reserve a table at one of the city's fine dining restaurants for an intimate evening of wining, dining and romancing.
Whatever your preference, our New Year's Eve Planner is your guide to some of the most spectacular celebrations taking place in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico on the last night of 2017.
