MAGELANG - The 2022 Balkonjazz Festival took place lively at the Balkondes PGN Karangrejo Borobudur Magelang. Thousands of spectators thronged the area but orderly occupied the place according to the tickets purchased.

Balkonjazz 2022 starts Saturday, May 14 from 13.30 to 22.00 western Indonesia time featuring popular local and national artists and musicians.

The first performance was by musicians Megantoro followed by Adhitia Sofyan, Coldiac, Raissa Anggaini, and Dere. This was followed by the appearance of Juicy Luicy, Rendy Pandugo, Pamungkas and Kahitna.

On average, each musician/band group performs 8 songs. The hysterics and excitement of the audience in the first session started when Dere started singing the song "Kota". Then in the second session, Juicy Lucy performed several songs with unique themes such as interfaith romance, backup lovers, and so on.

At around 17.30 western Indonesia time, the natural atmosphere had changed from hot to heavy rain. Occasionally thunder boomed.

However, almost all of the audience at the front of the stage did not move. They are still enthusiastic, occasionally screaming hysterically when their favorite song is sung by an idol musician.

The VIP audience also seemed enthusiastic about enjoying the songs from all the musicians who were presented at the 2022 Balkonjazz Festival. When the rain was getting heavier, the song from Rendy Pandugo made the atmosphere even more lively.

One of the spectators, Dwiki Putra Nugraha, who came with his lover deliberately took the time to buy Balkonjazz tickets because he had not seen the concert and the crowds due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic.

"What I look forward to the most is the appearance of Pamungkas and Kahitna at the end of the event. This longing to watch the concert is what we have felt, especially when the COVID-19 pandemic that has hit Indonesia has brought all social activities to a standstill," he lamented.
