Day Zero Bali returns for its second edition with Day Zero Week running April 13–18 and the main festival back at GWK Cultural Park on April 16, 2027

Following Day Zero Bali’s debut at GWK Cultural Park in April 2026, the festival is preparing to bring the experience back to the island for a second edition. Its first year extended beyond the main event beneath Garuda Wisnu Kencana, as Day Zero Week brought music and cultural events to several locations across Bali. Next year, the week will run from April 13–18, with the main festival returning to GWK Cultural Park on April 16.

How Day Zero Week Extended the Bali Debut Across the Island

The 2026 debut introduced Day Zero Week through events at Desa Kitsuné, Ulu Cliffhouse, Savaya and other locations. With parties taking place before and after the main festival, visitors could experience different parts of Bali across several days while GWK Cultural Park remained the main event.

That week-long approach will continue next April, when Day Zero Week runs for six days around the April 16 festival. Day Zero has yet to reveal the participating venues or artists, leaving the rest of the week to be announced over the coming months.

Why GWK Cultural Park Became Such an Important Part of Day Zero Bali

Returning to GWK Cultural Park also brings the festival back to the location that introduced Day Zero to Indonesia. Thousands gathered beneath Garuda Wisnu Kencana in 2026 for performances from Damian Lazarus, John Summit, Jamie Jones, Bonobo, Âme, Jan Blomqvist and Satori.

Balinese culture also played a role throughout the debut, connecting the event with its surroundings beyond the music itself. That relationship gave the Bali edition a different character from Day Zero’s long-running festival in Tulum, while still carrying the ideas that have followed the project since its beginnings.

With GWK Cultural Park confirmed again for 2027, the second edition can continue from what the festival established during its first year in Indonesia. The wider Day Zero Week will then take the celebrations to other locations across the island before and after the main festival.

What Comes Next Before Day Zero Bali Returns in April 2027

The lineup and full Day Zero Week schedule are still to come, along with details on the venues hosting events from April 13–18. Pre-registration is already open, ahead of tickets going on sale to the public on November 26 at 7 PM Bali time.

Those planning to attend several events will also have the option of an Island Pass, which covers access across Day Zero Week. With the dates now in place, the remaining announcements will complete the picture for Day Zero Bali’s second year on the island.
