JOYÀ Cirque du Soleil in Riviera Maya: Complete Guide 2024

Welcome to the ultimate guide to enjoying JOYÀ, the impressive Cirque du Soleil show in Riviera Maya! Below, we offer all the information you need for an unforgettable experience.

 

Where is the JOYÀ Theater by Cirque du Soleil?

The JOYÀ theater is located at Vidanta Riviera Maya, a luxury resort about 40 minutes from Cancún and around 25 minutes from Playa del Carmen. This magical place is surrounded by lush vegetation, adding a special touch to the show's atmosphere.

How to Get from Cancún or Playa del Carmen to the Cirque du Soleil Theater?

Transportation Options:

• Official Bus: The most comfortable option. Buses depart from Plaza la Isla (in the Cancún Hotel Zone) and Playacar Center in Playa del Carmen, taking you directly to the theater round-trip.
• Taxis: Available in all tourist areas, though they can be expensive.
• Colectivos: An economical and local option. These are shared passenger vans operating in the region.

Personal recommendation: If traveling in a group, a taxi or private transportation may be more convenient and economical.

 

If I Don't Want to Dine at the Theater, Can I Still Attend Cirque du Soleil JOYÀ?

Absolutely! JOYÀ offers various ticket options to suit your preferences. You can opt for show-only tickets without dinner. However, we recommend experiencing the dinner at least once, as it adds to the charm of the show.
