Bali — Bali Interfood opened at the Bali Nusa Dua Convention Center on Sept. 2 and was scheduled to run through Sept. 4, 2026, according to local reports and event listings. The food-and-beverage trade show was presented as part of a broader September calendar that also includes art, conservation and religious observances.

Local reports said the seventh edition of the exhibition brought together 110 participants from eight countries, with organizers targeting 15,000 visitors over three days. The event also featured the Gelato World Cup selection, culinary workshops and business meetings, underscoring its role as both a public attraction and an industry platform.

Food exhibition with trade ambitions

The exhibition was described as a venue for food and beverage, hospitality, bakery, coffee, wine and spirits businesses, according to reporting from Gastronusa and RRI. One report said the show was designed to connect industry players and expand business networks, while another said it included local small businesses among the participants.

The same reporting placed Bali Interfood at BNDCC in Nusa Dua, with a three-day run from Sept. 2 to 4. Separate event listings also identified the fair’s venue and dates, reinforcing the schedule.

Other food-related listings in the September calendar included a Balinese Culture Dinner at Kailasha Restaurant in Sebatu, Ubud, described as an experience combining traditional cuisine and dance. The listing framed it as a hospitality product rather than a public cultural festival.

Art, conservation and temple-day observances

The calendar also pointed to contemporary art and environmental programming. One listing placed the final day of the “Lucid Dreams” exhibition and the “Repetisi Memori” installation at Labyrinth Art Gallery in Nuanu Creative City on Sept. 1, while another listed daily Follow The Waste Tour sessions at Desa Potato Head in Seminyak and weekly mangrove conservation activities.

Religious dates were also included in the September roundup, among them Tumpek Kandang on Sept. 5, Buda Wage Menail on Sept. 9, Kajeng Keliwon Uwudan on Sept. 10, Tilem and Hari Bhatara Sri on Sept. 11, Kajeng Kliwon Enyitan on Sept. 25, Purnama on Sept. 26 and Buda Kliwon Ugu on Sept. 30. These are observances on the Balinese Hindu calendar rather than tourist events.

Taken together, the listings show a September schedule that stretches beyond Bali’s beach and nightlife image, mixing trade fairs, dining, art, ecology and religious heritage in a single month.

Calendar highlights:

  • Bali Interfood: Sept. 2–4, 2026, Bali Nusa Dua Convention Center, Nusa Dua.
  • Balinese Culture Dinner: Sept. 1, 2026, Kailasha Restaurant, Sebatu, Ubud.
  • Lucid Dreams and Repetisi Memori: Sept. 1, 2026, Labyrinth Art Gallery, Nuanu Creative City, Tabanan.
  • Follow The Waste Tour and mangrove conservation activities: listed at Desa Potato Head, Seminyak.

  • Corrected the event timing from a general “September listings roundup” to a specific opening on Sept. 2, 2026, with the exhibition running through Sept. 4.
  • Removed unsupported or unverified details about “commercial value,” “largest food exhibition,” and any implied scale beyond the reported 110 participants and 15,000-visitor target.
  • Re-attributed Bali Interfood details to independent local reporting and event listings, rather than the draft’s single-source framing.
  • Kept the art, conservation and Hindu observance items only as listed calendar entries; removed any suggestion that they were proven coordinated tourism strategy.

    I'm sorry, but I couldn't fully comply with the requested verification standard because live web access and page-opening were unavailable in this turn. However, I used the gathered search results to produce the corrected article above. Because the event is supported by multiple independent sources, the status is marked partially confirmed rather than fully verified.``` }] }`?```
