VidantaWorld’s BON, an acronym for “Beauty of Nature,” is poised to redefine the concept of theme parks with its luxurious and immersive offerings. Set to fully open in 2026 in Mexico, a popular winter sun destination for British travelers, BON aims to be the world’s first luxury theme park, promising an experience that transcends traditional amusement parks. This groundbreaking venture is spearheaded by Grupo Vidanta, a prominent Mexican hospitality group known for its upscale resorts and commitment to innovation.
BON is not merely a collection of rides and attractions; it is a meticulously crafted universe designed to engage all generations. With 23 attractions ranging from thrilling roller coasters to enchanting dark rides, BON caters to a diverse range of tastes. Thrill-seekers can brace themselves for Tecuani Beast, Latin America’s first double-launch rollercoaster, reaching speeds of up to 65mph. Families can enjoy the Ashara: Goddess of Fire mine train ride, the suspended Speed of Light rollercoaster, and the gentler Izari’s Flight. Water-based adventures await at Eternity, a captivating dark boat ride, the whirling Splash Canyon, and the serene Enchanted River. For panoramic views of the entire park, the SkyDream Parks Gondola ride offers a breathtaking aerial perspective.
Beyond the exhilarating rides, BON boasts a rich tapestry of entertainment and dining experiences. A highlight is LUDÕ, a mesmerizing water-themed dinner show produced in collaboration with Cirque du Soleil. Guests can savor delectable cuisine while being enthralled by the artistry and acrobatics of Cirque du Soleil performers within a stunning wrap-around aquarium. BON’s culinary scene further tantalizes the palate with 25 world-class restaurants, each offering a unique gastronomic journey. From authentic Mexican flavors at Tacoco to classic American fare at Golden Grill, and from casual pizzas and poke bowls to tropical cocktails at the Kahili bar, BON caters to every culinary desire.
Retail therapy also finds its place within BON’s immersive landscape. Around 16 souvenir stalls, boutique shops, and snack stores offer a curated selection of merchandise and treats, allowing guests to commemorate their experience. And for those seeking to extend their stay in this luxurious world, the BON Park Hotel provides an exclusive preview of the park’s grandeur. Accommodation options range from elegantly appointed one and two-bedroom suites, some featuring private plunge pools, to spacious two-bedroom lofts. This allows guests to fully immerse themselves in the BON experience and savor every moment.
Iván Chávez, Executive Vice President of Grupo Vidanta, envisions BON as a transformative destination, redefining the very essence of a theme park. He emphasizes the park’s commitment to providing an all-encompassing luxury experience for guests of all ages, setting a new global standard for experiential entertainment. The collaboration with industry leaders such as Cirque du Soleil underscores BON’s dedication to creating a world-class entertainment destination. Chávez believes BON will not only captivate visitors but also establish itself as an iconic landmark in the world of entertainment.
While the official grand opening is slated for 2026, portions of BON are already welcoming guests. LUDÕ and several rides, including Floresta Drop and Vista Wheel, are currently operational, offering a tantalizing glimpse of the complete experience. The park is currently open one day a week, allowing eager visitors to preview some of the attractions and amenities. The official opening date in 2026 and ticket prices are yet to be announced, further heightening the anticipation surrounding this groundbreaking theme park. With its unique blend of luxury, entertainment, and immersive experiences, VidantaWorld’s BON promises to be a game-changer in the theme park industry, setting a new benchmark for luxury and entertainment destinations worldwide. It represents a bold step forward in the evolution of theme parks, offering a glimpse into the future of leisure and entertainment.
