Dieng Culture Festival 2026
“A once-a-year highland gathering where an ancient Hindu-temple plateau becomes a stage for living Javanese ritual.”
The Dieng Culture Festival on the Dieng Plateau brings together highland rituals, the sacred dreadlock-cutting (ruwatan rambut gimbal) ceremony, jazz above the clouds, and lantern releases across the temple valley, across three days at the end of August.
