Hi travelers, 

If you are on the island of Bali celebrating the holidays this year, don’t miss the magnificent festival that will be held on December 28-31- 2016.  This is the 9^th   year of the festival and  features music, dance, street food, theater, fashion show, and more.   The event will be centered in Puputan Badung Square.  You will see a special art installation dubbed “Ebullience”, which is displayed as a form of joy by the Denpasar regency in welcoming the new year.

Every year, the festival attracts thousands of domestic and foreign tourists to celebrate and experience  the real Bali.  

The festival was first held in 2008 to promote the art and culture of Bali, and was formerly known as the Gajah Mada Town Festival.  Now the  festival attracts more visitors and gives the artists the opportunity to create fresh and magnificent works of art.   According to the mayor of Denpasar I. B Dharmawijaya Mantra, this festival should be a combination of tradition and  modern art forms to attract more visitors to Bali, especially during the peak Christmas season and New Year Holiday.  You will see the creative works of young artists and masters who work together in their creations for this festival to present a very fresh and spectacular end of 2016 with joy.
