[2026] Indonesia's music festival: a powerful stage that shakes the tropical night

A multi-genre music festival that tours across Indonesia. Officially, it champions meticulously curated stages—starting from the question of how music is experienced—featuring special arrangements and interpretations. The event comprises three areas: “The Stage” for listening to artists’ music, “The Space” for enjoying art, and “The Lab” for connecting with musicians and creators. Kicking off in Jakarta on July 18–19, 2026, it will then be held sequentially in five cities.
