The Venue – Industry Nightclub

  • The club has a large main dance floor, elevated performance areas, a substantial lighting installation and a powerful sound system designed for circuit music.
  • Go-go dancers perform above the crowd, while video projections, lasers and lighting effects accompany the DJ sets.
  • Industry also offers VIP tables and reserved areas for groups.
  • The club is busiest after midnight, when visitors arrive from the surrounding bars.

Getting There

  • Address: Lázaro Cárdenas 258, Zona Romántica.
  • From Olas Altas: Approximately 5 to 10 minutes on foot.
  • From Los Muertos Beach: Approximately 10 minutes on foot.
  • From central Zona Romántica hotels: Most are within walking distance.

Staying in Zona Romántica avoids the need for taxis after the parties, particularly on Halloween night when the streets are busy.

Before the Party

Industry is surrounded by some of Puerto Vallarta’s most popular gay bars. Arrive in the neighbourhood earlier for cocktails and a chance to see the Halloween costumes before heading to the club.

  • Mr Flamingo – An open-front gay bar on Lázaro Cárdenas with music, cocktails and a crowd that spills onto the pavement. Its location makes it an easy first stop before Industry.
  • La Noche – A three-level gay bar with go-go dancers, drag entertainment and a rooftop terrace. The atmosphere becomes increasingly club-oriented as the evening progresses.
  • One Six One – A cocktail-focused bar on Olas Altas, with a more intimate atmosphere and carefully prepared drinks. Particularly useful for meeting friends before the larger circuit parties.

Halloween Night in Zona Romántica

  • Sunday 31st October, 2027  is the main Halloween celebration across Puerto Vallarta’s gay district.
  • The Around the Block costume contest runs from 7 pm to 11 pm, involving Anonimo, One Six One, The Swedes and Blondies.
  • Visitors can follow the costumes and celebrations around the participating bars before heading to Industry for the main late-night party.

Halloween and Día de Muertos in Puerto Vallarta

Industry’s weekend coincides with several other major celebrations.

  • Mantamar Halloween Pool Parties – Three daytime pool parties from Friday to Sunday, beginning at 11 am on Los Muertos Beach.
  • Puerto Vallarta Halloween – The wider programme includes costume competitions, gay bar parties, pool events and celebrations around the Malecón.
  • Día de Muertos – Traditional altars, giant Catrinas and public celebrations continue into Monday 2nd November, when the city’s Día de Muertos parade takes place.

Industry and Mantamar are separately ticketed events.

Where to Stay for Industry Halloween Weekend

Zona Romántica is the most convenient neighbourhood for this event. Stay close to Lázaro Cárdenas, Olas Altas or Pino Suárez for easy access to Industry, the gay bars and Los Muertos Beach.

  • Hotel Posada de Roger – A traditional Mexican hotel on Basilio Badillo, with tiled courtyards, tropical plants and a rooftop swimming pool. Rooms are simple rather than luxurious, but the location is excellent for walking between Industry, restaurants and the beach.
  • Casa Nicole Boutique Hotel – A four-star boutique hotel on Pino Suárez, with generously sized rooms, a rooftop swimming pool and an established restaurant. Close to Industry without being directly above the busiest nightlife streets.
  • Hotel Boutique Rivera del Rio – An individually designed boutique hotel beside the Río Cuale, with antique furnishings, dramatic interiors and two swimming pools. A more distinctive alternative to conventional resort accommodation, within walking distance of the gay district.
  • Pinnacle Resorts 180 – Apartment-style accommodation on Calle Púlpito, with kitchens, generous living areas and an outdoor pool. The additional space works well for groups sharing a Halloween weekend, although the property sits uphill from the main bar district.

Planning Your Visit

  • Book accommodation early, as Halloween attracts visitors for both the circuit parties and Día de Muertos celebrations.
  • Saturday is likely to be the busiest night at Industry.
  • Buy tickets in advance and check whether your admission covers one night or the full weekend.
  • Arrange VIP tables directly with the club if travelling in a group.
  • Stay through Monday 2nd November to enjoy the traditional Día de Muertos celebrations.
