Ketut Nugra

You can expect more exciting events from Kuta, Seminyak , legian, Nusa Dua, Sanur and all over Bali this month.

The seventh Kuta Carnival is designed as a medium of collaboration of devotee’s appreciation to culture, ritual and nature. This collaboration is meant to maintain this balance and it will be interpreted by presentation of art and culture, spiritual activity as well as environmental care action. Even, to improve and encourage the national identity and to appreciate the national culture, Kuta Carnival will also perform the colossal Pendet Dance.
Thus was revealed when the Committee of Kuta Carnival was received by the CEO of Bali Post Media Group (KMB), Satria Naradha, at K Nadha Bali Press Building, Wednesday (Aug 26). According to the Head of the Committee of Kuta Carnival, Ketut Nugra, the event of this year would be organized on the upcoming September 19-27. Opening ceremony would be centralized at Kuta Beach starting from 15:00 Local Time with a variety of activities.
“The current Carnival has cultural spirit, spiritual and appreciation to the environment. By featuring the theme “Ecological Creative” we would like to invite the public to care of the environment including the spirit of culture and life,” he said. Similar affirmation was delivered by Puspa Negara. He said that the concern with culture, nature including the spirit of rituals should be echoed continuously. Diversity of cultural style that we believe has ritual values including the business potential that should be preserved. “We wish to construct an acculturation of life rhythm, either that gets in touch with the nature, cultural or ritual life,” he expressed.
CEO of Bali Post Media Group, Satria Naradha, responded the event positively. He expected that all components of community awaken to maintain their national identity and culture. By this awareness, he expected the awakening of nationalism and establishment of appreciation to traditional arts. National identity could be accommodated by providing space, and facilitating the artist to express their creations, including protecting the forms of their creativity.
Agenda of the Kuta Carnival will be graced by cultural parade, spiritual activity in the form of pasepan agung, yoga and food festival. Other agenda consists of the presentation of colossal Pendet Dance including environmental care action and will be organized at different locations such as Seminyak, Legian and Kuta Beach.
