Bali’s Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade

Ogoh-ogoh - Bali Street Photographer
Balinese ogoh-ogoh enthusiasts pose for a selfie at a Pengerupukan Day parade (day before Nyepi).

Today, 17 March 2018, is Pengerupukan in Bali. This is the day when all the ogoh-ogoh statues take to the streets. These giant puppet-like statues finally get to play outside after being meticulously handcrafted for weeks.

Pengerupukan is the Balinese New Year’s Eve. See our ogoh-ogoh gallery here for more.

Here is a list of confirmed ogoh-ogoh parade locations in the Ubud area. Festivities start at 6 pm.
