Bali welcomes 2027 on Thursday, December 31, 2026. From a beachfront festival in Berawa to a clifftop DJ set in Uluwatu, several venues have already published events for the countdown. There are also resort dinners in Jimbaran for visitors who would rather share a meal before midnight than spend the entire night on a dance floor.
The choice is not between “the Bali party” and staying in. These are separate events with different tickets, ages, prices and start times. FINNS has announced a two-day festival on December 30–31; Atlas has booked Quavo for December 31; Savaya has published a 9 p.m.-to-sunrise lineup; and AYANA has confirmed countdown settings and individually priced dinners. Choose the part of the island where you want to end the night, then plan the celebration around it.

When Is Bali New Year’s Eve 2026?
The Countdown to 2027
The countdown begins on Thursday, December 31, 2026, and reaches midnight on Friday, January 1, 2027. Event names can be confusing: “New Year’s Eve 2026” refers to the night itself, while “New Year 2027” refers to the year it welcomes. Always check that a ticket states December 31, 2026, not December 31 of a previous year.
Bali’s December countdown is also different from Nyepi, the Balinese Saka New Year. Nyepi is a religious day of silence and reflection; it is not the late-night Gregorian New Year’s Eve celebration described here. Keeping those occasions distinct is part of understanding the island beyond its party calendar.
Some venues begin well before midnight, while others make the countdown the start of a much longer night. If you are booking accommodation, start with your chosen venue’s location. A room near Berawa will suit a different plan from one near Uluwatu or Jimbaran.
FINNS NYE Festival in Berawa
A Two-Day Celebration
FINNS Beach Club has announced a two-day NYE Festival for Wednesday, December 30, and Thursday, December 31, 2026, at its Jalan Pantai Berawa venue in the Canggu area. Its published artist announcement names Major Lazer Soundsystem and CYRIL for the first day, with GORDO and a DJ set by The Temper Trap on New Year’s Eve. FINNS says a festival ticket gives access to both days.
That makes FINNS a strong fit if you want more than one evening of music and expect to stay around Berawa. It is less useful if you only have a few hours free on December 31 and would prefer a single dinner reservation.
"Tickets are not sold at the door, so plan admission before heading to the beach club."
Check the final entry rules when purchasing, including the age policy, last-entry time and what a general-admission ticket covers. A two-day ticket does not necessarily include a reserved table, meals or drinks.
Atlas NYE with Quavo
Hip-Hop Headliner in Canggu
For visitors who want a hip-hop headliner, Atlas Beach Club has confirmed Quavo for Thursday, December 31, 2026. Its event page lists gates opening at 1 p.m. WITA and a minimum age of 16. Atlas is in the Canggu area of Badung, giving guests an afternoon start to their New Year’s Eve plans.
The organiser advertises a live Quavo performance and a countdown, but the reviewed event page does not show his individual performance time or a fixed general-admission ticket price. If seeing Quavo is your priority, do not arrive based on a guessed set time. Check for the final running order and the full price when selecting a ticket.
"70% of the payment is credited toward food and beverages, while 30% is the ticket fee."
Plan what you will need for the daytime as well as the countdown, and check the venue’s current bag, swimwear and re-entry rules before leaving your accommodation.
Savaya’s Uluwatu Countdown
Music and Sunrise in Pecatu
Savaya Bali has announced a New Year’s Eve lineup of Carl Cox, Nic Fanciulli and Prospa on Thursday, December 31, 2026. The venue opens at 9 p.m. and advertises a celebration through sunrise from its clifftop location in Pecatu, Uluwatu.
- 9–10:30 p.m.: Sara Siu.
- 10:30 p.m.–midnight: Sarabi.
- Midnight–3 a.m. on January 1: Prospa.
- From 3 a.m.: Carl Cox playing back-to-back with Nic Fanciulli for a sunrise set.
Savaya lists general admission at Rp5,000,000. Entry is strictly 21+, valid ID is required, and only ticket holders or guests with confirmed table reservations can enter, subject to capacity. Its event page describes tickets as non-refundable and non-transferable. Check live availability before making plans, as some ticket tiers may sell out.
AYANA Dinners and Fireworks in Jimbaran
Festive Dining and Ocean Views
AYANA Bali offers a different kind of December 31, 2026 evening in Jimbaran. Its Festive Everglow programme confirms New Year’s countdown settings with live bands or DJs, ocean views and a fireworks display, alongside a collection of special dinners. AYANA says each countdown venue requires a separate reservation, in-house guests have priority access, and selected dining events may admit outside guests subject to availability.
One option with a clearly published price is Karang, where Indonesian heritage dining runs 7–11 p.m. on December 31. The New Year’s Eve menu is Rp1,550,000++ per adult, with a minimum of two people. It includes dishes such as sate lilit ayam, tum bebek and bubuh injin. The restaurant requires an advance reservation.
"Confirm your countdown reservation separately, as the resort’s general policy says each venue requires one."
The “++” prices are before a 10% service charge and 11% government tax, according to AYANA’s restaurant terms. Ask for the complete payable total for your party, including any children’s meal or countdown charge, before reserving.
Another Beachfront Option
Roosterfish Beach Club's Ocean Odyssey
At Roosterfish Beach Club on Pantai Pandawa, “Ocean Odyssey: Voyage to Midnight” is listed for December 31, 2026, from noon until late. Its ticket seller names DJ Stevie Dominique and DJ Aswin and advertises fireworks, dancers, a foam party and water-drum percussion. The event page also promotes up to 15% savings for reservations made before November 30, 2026, but the reviewed details do not state a single base admission price.
This is a separate venue in South Kuta, not an add-on to the parties in Berawa or Pecatu. Check what the ticket includes, which sessions are available and any age restrictions at checkout. The beach setting and daytime opening may appeal to a different crowd from Savaya’s 9 p.m. start, but “noon until late” is not a confirmed closing time.
The Island Beyond the Party
Embracing Bali's Cultural Richness
New Year’s Eve visitors often focus on the DJ lineup, but Bali’s neighbourhoods give each celebration a different feel. Berawa and Canggu offer a busy beach-club setting. Pecatu and Uluwatu are known for limestone cliffs and ocean views. Jimbaran lends itself to an unhurried meal by the coast. The named parties above belong to specific venues; they do not establish that every nearby beach will have public fireworks or free entry.
If you have time before December 31, consider a cultural outing that stands on its own. Uluwatu Temple, for example, is a Balinese Hindu place of worship on a cliff, with sunset Kecak performances offered separately from club events. Dress appropriately, respect ceremonies and check its hours and admission. A temple visit should not be treated as a pre-party photo stop without regard for the people worshipping there.
"Bali’s Gregorian New Year celebration and its Nyepi traditions also tell different stories."
Visitors can enjoy the first while making room to understand the second.
Travel Tips for December 31
Practical Advice for a Seamless Celebration
The most practical decision is where you will sleep after the celebration. Choose accommodation near the area of your booked event if you can, rather than trying to travel between Berawa, Jimbaran, Pandawa and Uluwatu in one evening. A midnight countdown leaves little time for an ambitious cross-island itinerary.
December is part of Bali’s rainy season, which Indonesia Travel generally places from October to March. Rain does not mean the whole night will be wet, but outdoor events can be affected. Check the forecast and the venue’s weather policy, and bring something suitable for a shower without carrying items the club prohibits.
Before buying, confirm:
- The exact date and venue: Thursday, December 31, 2026, welcoming January 1, 2027.
- The age minimum: Savaya is 21+; Atlas lists 16+. Other venues set their own rules.
- The full checkout price: Look beyond an early-bird rate or a “++” menu figure.
- What is included: General entry, seating, food, drinks and countdown access may be separate.
- Your way home: Set a pickup plan before midnight or before the venue closes.
Leave some room in the day to rest. An afternoon beach-club ticket and a sunrise party demand different amounts of energy, and the best celebration is the one you can actually enjoy from beginning to end.
