Legian, 5 March 2024 — The vibrant and culturally significant Ogoh Ogoh Parade is set to grace the streets of Legian once again this year, marking the upcoming Nyepi Day celebrations. Scheduled for March 11, 2024, the parade promises a spectacle of intricate Balinese artistry and traditional performances.
The annual Ogoh Ogoh Parade, a beloved event in Bali's cultural calendar, will commence at Kuta Traditional Market and wind its way through Legian Street. Residents and visitors alike are invited to witness the captivating display of elaborately crafted Ogoh Ogoh effigies, each representing spiritual entities and mythical creatures.
In light of the parade, Legian Street will be temporarily closed to vehicular traffic on March 11, ensuring the safety and enjoyment of participants and spectators alike.
As the island prepares for Nyepi Day, a time of introspection and spiritual rejuvenation, it is essential to observe the Catur Brata Penyepian, the four prohibitions, which include amati geni (no fire or light), amati karya (no work), amati lelungan (no traveling), and amati lelanguan (no entertainment or revelry). These guidelines are fundamental to honoring the significance of Nyepi within Bali's cultural and religious traditions.
