Hello there,

What are the best sources to get info about what's
happening in Jakarta? Like festivals, new places or any other events
whether they're small or big ones.-

I've been out of Jakarta for quite some time and totally lost so I'm
pretty sure I've missed a lot..!:rolleyes:
Any blogs, websites, forums, magazines that I should probably look up
other than what I've been reading maybe? :D::D

Thank you all..!

Hi Maria

Rajakarcis is a good site to see what big bands and DJs are coming up (they sell tickets)

Otherwise there are a few free magazines, you can usually pick up copies in Arcadia near Plaza Senayan

After that try 100 best bars in Jakarta, it has a good overview of clubs, bars etc if that is what you are looking for

Sorry I can't be more specific

Good luck

Sam

Hi Sam, thanks for the input. Bars or clubs are not necessarily
what I'd like to explore, although it's good to know..:))

Things like Festivals that go on for days, like food festivals, film, music
or any events as such may be the stuff that I'm looking for.
The problem is that the small events sometimes not being published on papees
or sites,-

To be honest I have not worked out how to find out whats going on myself. Maybe whatsnewinjakarta as Luke says, or just read the Jakarta Post :)

Let me know what you find out. I'd be interested to know :)

@ Luke & Sam .- Yup.! What's new Jakarta is on my Twitter already, I'm following them.
It's a good one though. I guess maybe the best way is to get the stuff randomly from everywhere.

Thanks a ton guys.!!
