DetailsGood to know Balinese holy day
Tumpek Wayang
Every 210 days Bali blesses its performing arts. Puppeteers make offerings to their shadow puppets, and gamelan sets, masks and costumes are blessed in homes, banjar halls and temples. It is also Kajeng Kliwon, so expect many offerings in the streets.
Plan it: A religious day, not a show: don’t step over offerings, and ask before photographing puppets or ceremonies up close.
