Sanur eases into the festive season with a celebration that beautifully blends heritage, music, and coastal serenity. This year, The Meru Sanur and Bali Beach Hotel, The Heritage Collection, unveil Seaside Festive Symphony, a warm and thoughtfully curated program that brings together seaside gatherings, soulful performances, and elevated festive dining. Set along Sanur’s calm sunrise coast – within the Special Economic Zone for Health and Wellness – both properties offer an inviting backdrop for year-end holidays, where heritage and modern sophistication meet.
The festivities begin with the Seaside Symphony of Lights, a heartwarming Christmas tree lighting ceremony accompanied by a touching performance from a local children’s choir. It’s a gentle introduction to the season, filled with glow, harmonies, and a sense of community that reflects the spirit of Sanur. At Arunika Restaurant, the celebrations continue through the Seaside Christmas Eve Dinner and Christmas Day Brunch, where festive menus inspired by comforting seasonal flavours are crafted with care by the culinary team. Each meal becomes an opportunity to gather, savour, and slow down by the sea.
The most anticipated moment of the season arrives on 31 December 2025, when Sanur presents the first-ever collaboration between two Indonesian music maestros: the Erwin Gutawa Orchestra and Indra Lesmana. Their grand New Year’s Eve concert, paired with a seaside buffet dinner, promises a spectacular evening blending culture, artistry, and world-class musical talent. Joining them are Eva Celia, Teza Sumendra, Gabriel Harvianto, and Woro Mustiko, adding depth and colour to the line-up. The Erwin Gutawa Orchestra’s performance of Ethnochestra highlights Indonesia’s rich cultural tapestry through orchestral arrangements, an evocative wayang segment led by Woro Mustiko, and compositions inspired by the nation’s heritage. Indra Lesmana’s jazz performance, accompanied by Eva Celia and Teza Sumendra, creates a modern and cross-generational dialogue that bridges jazz’s global language with Indonesian identity, offering a bold and expressive finale to the year.
The evening opens with Kita Poleng, a contemporary interpretation of traditional Balinese heritage presented through movement and storytelling. Tickets to this prestigious concert and dining experience are priced at IDR 3,500,000++ per person, with a special early bird discount of 20% for bookings made between 18 and 22 November 2025. To complement the festivities, two exclusive stay packages have been crafted: Symphony Serenity at The Meru Sanur, featuring a Tropical Suite stay, breakfast for two, and concert tickets; and Symphony Serenity at Bali Beach Hotel, The Heritage Collection, offering a Deluxe Room stay with the same inclusions.
As 2025 draws to a close, Seaside Festive Symphony invites guests to embrace the season through meaningful moments of music, culture, and coastal beauty. Whether enjoyed as a festive family retreat or a soulful end-of-year escape, this celebration promises a memorable start to the new year – wrapped in harmony, heritage, and the timeless charm of Sanur.
