Corona Virus Does Not Hinder The Java Jazz 2020 Event

JAKARTA - The 2020 Java Jazz Festival will be held in two days, from 28 February to 1 March 2020. A number of line ups have been released through the official account and the Java Jazz website. However, this festival also did not escape the audience's worries about the corona virus or COVID-19 which is endemic in Asian countries and a number of other countries. Dewi Gontha as president director is aware of this.

Ari Lennox, one of the performers canceled his attendance at Java Jazz because of the corona virus. Java Festival Production as the organizer respects this decision for the safety of all parties. Dewi also said that a number of prospective Java Jazz 2020 viewers from China also canceled their attendance because they were not allowed to travel abroad.

For the audience who attend Java Jazz 2020, their safety will be guaranteed with the protection of Avrist, who has been the sponsor of Java Jazz for several years. They said their readiness to keep the audience in order to watch the show enjoyment.

A number of sponsors were promised a pleasant experience, namely BNI, Bali Fiber, and Sosro. The sponsors will provide activities that the audience can participate in when attending the Java Jazz 2020. There are games, mobile banking services, and attractive offers that can be obtained by visiting the booth. Make sure you participate, yes!
