Be prepared for PICA Fest 2016, held on April 1-3, 2016, at GOR Ngurah Rai on Jalan Melati in North Denpasar, not far from the center of the city.

One of the special features of this festival is that all the clothing brands involved are all originally based in Bali. Combined with the food and beverage stalls there will be a total of 100 booths on the venue!
In terms of the music element of this festival, the line-up for the three days consists of 60 performances divided on the three stages of which each are designated to rock, pop, and electronic music.
It includes big names who own a great nationwide reputation such as Enda and Resha (Jakarta), Killing Me Inside (Jakarta), Rocket Rockers (Bandung), Hellcrust (Jakarta) to name a few. Of course Bali's very own well-respected artists are part of this line up as well, presenting Joni Agung, Devildice, Painful by Kisses, Rajawali Ingkar Janji, Parau and many more exciting names!
Aside from those main components of the festival, PICA Fest 2016 has also invited various communities in Bali to share and introduce their activities to a wider audience which will be available on the venue.
