Day Zero Bali is coming back. Damian Lazarus and Savaya Group have confirmed that the festival will return to GWK Cultural Park on April 16, 2027, following what organizers are calling a landmark debut edition. The announcement also includes the return of Day Zero Week, a six-day run of music, wellness, and cultural programming across the island from April 13 through April 18, 2027.
For those unfamiliar, Day Zero started out in the jungles of Tulum back in 2012 and has since grown into a festival series with stops in Mexico, Brazil, and Indonesia. The whole thing is curated by Damian Lazarus, the producer and DJ best known as the founder of Crosstown Rebels, a label that’s been a mainstay of underground house and techno since the early 2000s. Each Day Zero edition leans on local talent and tradition as much as it does on the lineup, with Lazarus consistently framing the festival as a cultural exchange rather than just another stop on the circuit.
The inaugural Bali edition set that tone early. Held at GWK Cultural Park beneath the towering Garuda Wisnu Kencana statue, the debut drew thousands of attendees and opened with a traditional Balinese prayer ceremony.
