Access and hours during the soft opening

The park is part of the 2,500-acre VidantaWorld Vallarta vacation destination near Puerto Vallarta International Airport. Its soft-opening schedule runs Tuesday through Saturday, from 5 p.m. to 11:30 p.m., with hours subject to adjustment.

Guests currently have access to five themed worlds: Laguna Feliz, Celebration Lagoon, Crystal Star Plaza, Discovery Jungle and Adventure Valley. BON has seven worlds planned in total.

Coaster and drop tower lead the ride lineup

The Rise of Soluma, BON's headline coaster, places riders beneath the track with their feet dangling. Built by Dutch manufacturer Vekoma, the suspended roller coaster has no inversions. Its 372-meter track reaches a height of 20 meters, and the ride reaches speeds of 54 km/h.

In Laguna Feliz, Floresta Drop takes riders approximately 40 meters (131 feet) above the treeline, then sends them plunging toward the ground. Intamin of Liechtenstein built the attraction.

Vekoma and Intamin are among eight manufacturers supplying BON's attractions. The others are Germany's Mack Rides and Zierer, Italy's Zamperla, Bulgaria's Walltopia, France's Aerophile and Taiwan's Brogent.

Cirque du Soleil at BON

BON also houses a theater built specifically for Cirque du Soleil's LUDÕ. The production premiered there in December 2025.
