According to, Benjamin Andrews, director of the Smithsonian’s Global
Volcanism Program said, “ the vast majority
of visitors to Bali have nothing to fear, at least as far as their lives are
concerned, from the Mount Agung eruption, which is at least 30 miles from the
major tourist areas. “
As I mentioned before on my
blog, there several areas are very safe
to be in Bali like, Denpasar, Kuta, Legian, Seminyak, Peti Tenget, Uluwatu,
Jimbaran, Canggu, Nusa Dua, Sanur, and western Bali.
In these areas the Christmas Celebration and the New Year’s eve
2018 are open for tourists.
Celebrating New Year’s Eve in Bali is not only famous for the
outdoor festivities, but it’s equally famous for the celebrations that go on in
hotels and bars. My advice is, make sure to book a place in advance
because there are many offers and rates for each tourist spot.
Kuta, Seminyak, and Legian are the hot spots for party through the
night by young travelers. There are a host of pubs and bars, restaurants,
and cafes to choose from.
If you travel with family, Bali has it all for you. Bali
welcomes you and your family with spectacular firework displays at
midnight. Make sure to find your perfect spot to enjoy the
fireworks at one of these locations: Kuta, Legian, Seminyak, Puputan
Badung Square, and Jimbaran Bay. Don’t miss the Denpasar Festival here in
the Puputan Badung Square complete with its attractions.
Denpasar Festival December 2017 in Denpasar Bali
(Impressively beautiful, elaborate, extravagant festival of Bali)
The festival will feature exciting activities including
exhibitions, parades, art and cultural performances, fashion shows, games and
competitions, culinary bazaars, and more. Art and cultural performances will be
highlighted with traditional, contemporary, and modern shows, while a fashion
show will feature some of Indonesia's finest fabric products such as songket,
Balinese endekfabric, traditional embroidery, and more.
If you are on the island of Bali celebrating the holidays this
year, don’t miss the magnificent 4 day- festival that will be held on December
28-31- 2017. This is the 10th year of the festival
and features music, dance, street food, theater, fashion show, and
more. The event will be centered in Puputan Badung Square.
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.
