Bali Kite Festival
The Bali Kite Festival honors the Balinese love of kite flying while also honoring the Hindu gods for a healthy crop harvest. The festival takes place near Sanur, on the shore near Denpasar, and attracts guests from all around Indonesia and beyond. Balinese kites, which are often 10×4 meters in size (with tails up to 150 meters long), are flown by teams representing different towns. Common designs include fish, birds, and foliage. There are prizes for the best launch, best design, and longest flight, among other categories.
Galungan & Kuningan
Galungan is a 10-day festival that commemorates the triumph of good (dharma) over evil (adharma). Balinese Hindus believe that the gods descend to earth to join in the festivities and that the spirits of the deceased will return to their homes if offerings are left for them — look for penjor, which are tall poles decorated with fruit, leaves, and flowers and placed outside homes all over the island. This year it will occur in January and in June.
Saraswati
Saraswati Day honors Saraswati, the Hindu goddess of education, music, arts, wisdom, and learning, and occurs every 210 days on the Balinese calendar. People clean and dust their books the day before the celebration, and then make offerings to Saraswati on the day of the event. To emphasize the significance of the study, these presents are generally put inside books. Pagerwesi, which falls three days after Saraswati Day, is held to defend knowledge from evil (Pagerwesi literally means “iron barrier”).
