The Festive Arcade is a unique opportunity to support local artisans while enjoying a luxurious tropical holiday season filled with creative workshops, festive feasts, and sustainable décor.
Five-star luxury resort Conrad Bali is excited to announce the return of its highly anticipated Festive Arcade, alongside an enticing lineup of tropical holiday events. Each weekend from December 7th to 25th, guests can explore the best of Bali’s contemporary artisans and designers in a beautifully curated pop-up market, brimming with unique, and sustainable gifts perfect for the whole family.
Whether shopping for handcrafted jewelry, artisanal ceramics, sustainable houseware or eco-friendly skincare, the Festive Arcade promises something for everyone with over 15 local makers presenting their creative wares. Guests of all ages can participate in a variety of immersive workshops, from perfume and leather making to pottery painting.
Younger guests will be delighted by fun, crafty sessions designed to spark their imagination. In addition to the Christmas tree lighting ceremony and a visit from Santa, children can look forward to the Kura Kura Kids Club Christmas Party, packed with holiday games and treats.
This year’s festive theme brings a touch of elegance to the season with a Baubles & Bowties Christmas celebration, while New Year’s Eve will sparkle with a Bubbles & Bowties gala dinner. Guests can choose between an exquisite buffet at the poolside or a six-course international set menu at Eight Degrees South Restaurant, both prepared with the finest ingredients to welcome the new year in style.
For this year’s holiday season, Conrad Bali is proud to continue its collaboration with Make a Scene Bali, an award-winning collective of expert weavers and designers renowned as the island’s leading producers of larger-than-life, sustainable sculptures using traditional coconut leaf weaving techniques.
Their stunning six-foot-tall abstract Christmas tree will grace the resort’s lobby, demonstrating Conrad Bali’s commitment to sustainability and supporting local communities. This partnership, which began during the resort’s 20th anniversary celebrations, exemplifies a shared vision of eco-friendly hospitality and creative innovation.
Adding to the festive cheer, Conrad Bali is introducing a special edition of its iconic mascot, Komang the plush toy monkey, who has welcomed guests since the resort’s opening. He now makes an appearance in the seasonal spirit, with all proceeds from his sale going towards a worthy cause. This year’s charity initiative embodies the essence of giving and the sense of community that defines Conrad Bali’s festive program.
“As a proud member of the Hilton Hotels Group, Conrad Bali is dedicated to championing local artisans and supporting the region’s creative economy,” says Yoan Irma, Commercial Director of Conrad Bali.
