Starting July 16, 2026, the Romanian seaside will benefit from a new large-scale tourism and entertainment project with the launch of the NIBIRU resort, an investment of approximately EUR 50 million developed on an area of over 20 hectares between Costinești and Tuzla. The project, developed by Global Records as the majority shareholder and Andrei Șelaru (Selly), who holds a stake of around 15% and serves as CEO, aims to redefine the entertainment offerings on the coast, estimating a daily turnout of between 40,000 and 50,000 visitors during its 46 days of operation.
The NIBIRU complex will be open daily from July 16 to August 30, 2026, between 18:00 and 03:00. The resort’s business model is designed to generate revenue from commercial space rentals, bar sales, direct operation of major assets—such as the NIBIRU Arena and the nightclub—and brand partnerships. Unlike the classic coastal festival format, NIBIRU expands its target audience from young people aged 18 to 25 to families with children and couples over 30.
The complex’s infrastructure brings together a festival arena, a main stage (Central Stage), and over 30 restaurants, terraces, and cafes. Operationally, the estimated daily flow of visitors across the 46 days of activity will ensure a constant volume of consumption, compared to the average of 120,000 people per day recorded exclusively during the five days of the Beach, Please! festival. The daily program begins at 18:00 with street shows, interactive artistic performances, and acrobatics. From 21:00, the activity moves to the Central Stage for live concerts, after which festival ticket holders continue their experience in the NIBIRU Arena, while the rest of the promenade remains open until 03:00.
The access policy for the NIBIRU Promenade is structured into several categories. Approximately 30-40% of attendees will enter based on tickets, while the remaining 60-70% will be guests accessing the complex via a mandatory minimum consumption facility. For concerts featuring international artists, ticket prices will range between 49 RON and over 200 RON per day. For general access to the Promenade, online reservations offer free entry based on a minimum consumption of 25 RON (EUR 4.77) per person. Standard tickets purchased online before 17:00 cost 25 RON (EUR 4.77) and include consumption of equal value, while online purchases after 17:00 also cost 25 RON (EUR 4.77) but cover access only, without included consumption. On-site tickets at the door are priced at 35 RON (EUR 6.67), without consumption. The flexible “Any Day” option is available for 10 RON (EUR 1.91) for one day of access, while children under 5 and students enrolled in Romania enjoy free entry.
To attract visitors from across the coastline, the project includes partnerships with accommodation facilities in the resorts of Mamaia, Eforie Nord, Eforie Sud, Costinești, and Vama Veche. Road accessibility is supported by a large parking lot and drop-off zones for those arriving via the A2 highway and the DN39 national road. Dedicated bus and minibus shuttle services are provided, departing every 30 minutes from Constanța and neighboring major resorts, priced at 20 RON (EUR 3.81) per person, with free transport for children under 6. Estimated driving times are 5 minutes from Costinești and Tuzla, 15 minutes from Eforie Nord and Eforie Sud, 25 minutes from Constanța, and between 35 and 40 minutes from Mamaia. However, organizers recommend rail transport as the most efficient travel option.
All payments within the NIBIRU complex will be fully digitalized. Visitors can pay for services directly by bank card or via a dedicated NIBIRU card, which can be obtained and topped up with cash at top-up points on-site.
