Maintaining its standing as Southeast Asia’s leading country in population size and GDP, Indonesia remains a popular destination for international artist tours.
In June 2023, the market got a major boost with the opening of the 16,500-cap Indonesia Arena in Jakarta, which was a key setting for last year’s FIBA Basketball World Cup. While it’s normally reserved for sports, concerts also take place here, including a show by Dua Lipa in November. Meanwhile, the 20,053-capacity Beach City International Stadium is an indoor arena located inside lifestyle & entertainment centre Ancol Beach City and is set to follow up Niall Horan’s May show with K-Pop girl group Aespa in the summer, two dates of LANY in October, and Cigarettes After Sex next year.
Just a few hours’ drive from the capital the likes of Westlife, Shawn Mendes, and Celine Dion played sold-out shows at West Java’s Sentul International Convention Center. Able to accommodate 11,000 people, the venue includes three halls (main, exhibition, and function), VIP access, and spacious parking.
