The Badung Regency Government takes the helm in organizing this grand event, spreading the festive spirit across Kuta Art Market and Kuta Beach. According to Nyoman Rudiartha, the Head of the Badung Regency Tourism Office, this year’s theme, ‘From Kuta With Love,’ builds on the success of past celebrations.
While the exact budget remains undisclosed, it’s no secret that the Badung Regency Government spares no expense. In previous years, investments surpassed IDR 1.8 billion to ensure a mesmerizing experience. Details of the firework show, best viewed from outside the tsunami shelter, are eagerly awaited.
