Best Events & Festivals in Kuta, Bali

Cultural celebrations and events — Surfing, shopping, and vibrant nightlife hub

Bali's major cultural events — Nyepi (Balinese New Year and day of silence), Galungan, Kuningan, and village Odalan temple festivals — follow the Balinese Pawukon calendar rather than the Gregorian calendar, so dates shift each year. During Nyepi (usually March), the entire island shuts down completely for 24 hours including the airport. The listings in this category cover regular ongoing events; for specific Balinese calendar dates in a given year, cross-reference an official Balinese calendar source.
