aboutus
Lokaswara Festival is an international world music platform. Taken from the Sanskrit language, Lokaswara means the center of the sound of the universe.
This festival is exciting because it is held in Indonesia, a magical archipelago that has strong cultural roots, and will be held on the island of the Gods, Bali.
Like the previous festivals held by Lokaswara, this festival will also be fun, unique, and certainly not to be missed. You will experience a paradise of world music!
Lokaswara Festival is presented by Kementerian Pariwisata dan Ekonomi Kreatif and conceived and produced by Lokaswara.
