Punta Cana Expansion: Katmandu Theme Park Coming Soon!


Katmandu is a brand new theme park that will open in Punta Cana on March 15th. The park was created in conjunction with the Melia Hotels International and Falcon’s Beyond development company. This park and resort combo is coining the term “resortainment”, combining resort vacationing with entertainment. It will become a family-friendly destination with dining, retail and entertainment all in one location.


According to coverage from Travel + Leisure, “Katmandu Park Punta Cana will deliver an unprecedented theme park experience based on the popular characters of our very own Katmandu fantastical universe,” Cecil D. Magpuri, CEO of Falcon’s Beyond, said in a statement shared with T+L.


Below are the parks attractions and what to expect:
