Pestapora 2026 Announces First Phase Line-up, There is a Kind of Laen Keroncong to God Bless

JAKARTA - The most anticipated cross-generational music festival, Pestapora, is back with a surprise for Indonesian music lovers.

Boss Creator as the official promoter announced the first phase line-up for the Pestapora 2026 event which is scheduled to take place on September 25, 26, and 27.

Carrying the One Stop Celebration concept, this festival has consistently become a celebration venue that unites various communities and popular cultural spectra in Indonesia.

The uniqueness of this first phase line-up lies in the promoter's courage to present names that are out of the ordinary for mainstream music festivals. The Pestapora 2026 stage is sure to be enlivened by the presence of Jirayut, Keroncong Agak Laen, to the collaborative unit of Kevin Cotok which carries the concept of pop songs arranged into Minang rhythms.

Not stopping there, the sense of humor and nostalgia will also be strengthened by the appearance of Robokop (Rombongan Bodonk Koplo) and Tipe-X Orcheska.

The Director of Boss Creator in his statement emphasized that Pestapora is not merely a showcase for musicians, but an inclusive space for all levels of society.

"Pestapora 2026 is a space to be present, share, and celebrate togetherness. This is not just about who is performing on stage, but about how we create a collective memory across generations in one space of celebration that is safe and fun for everyone," said a representative of Boss Creator through a press release received by VOI, Wednesday, March 18.

The Indonesian music legend sector still gets a respectable portion with the presence of God Bless, Inul Daratista, Trio Ambisi, to the musical comedy group Project Pop and The Panasdalam Bank.

Meanwhile, for lovers of loud music, big names such as Burgerkill, Koil, and The SIGIT are ready to shake the stage. The mainstream pop side is no less impressive with the certainty of the appearance of Raisa, Tulus, Mahalini, Rizky Febian, to the new idols Bernadya and Nadhif Basalamah.

Ahead of Eid al-Fitr, the promoter offers a "Hari Raya" ticket sales scheme, where for every purchase of one ticket for Rp550,000 (excluding tax), the audience has the opportunity to invite one family member - whether father, mother, or child over 17 years old - for free as long as they are in the same Family Card (KK).

Special facilities in the form of wristbands and special lane access will also be provided for parents to ensure their comfort while in the festival area.

This strategy is carried out to expand the demographic of the music festival audience towards families, in line with the spirit of inclusiveness brought by Pestapora from the beginning.

In addition to the above musicians, the collaboration titled "Sunday School Era" which involves young figures such as Jerome Polin and Jehian Sidjabat will also be a magnet for visitors.
