BALI, INDONESIA-- “WATERBOMB BALI 2025,” a K-pop concert, is scheduled for September 6 and 7 at GWK Cultural Park in Bali, Indonesia. Pre-sale ticketing will officially begin at 12:00 PM (Jakarta time) on July 12, marking the launch of the full event schedule.

With an iconic K-pop girl group 2NE1 confirmed as the first lineup, excitement is already building for WATERBOMB BALI 2025.

According to the local concert organizer WAAO, the upcoming WATERBOMB BALI 2025 will be the first large-scale K-pop music festival ever held in Bali. The participation of 2NE1—comprising four members of Sandara Park, Park Bom, CL, and Gong Minzy—is particularly significant, as it heralds the beginning of this landmark event. The organizer also noted that final preparations are underway, with more performers to be announced progressively as they are confirmed.

Park Jae-hyun, CEO of WAAO, commented on 2NE1’s appearance, saying, “The Bali festival was made possible by requests from numerous Blackjacks (2NE1’s fandom), and this performance will go beyond just a concert to be remembered as a historic moment created by the fans themselves.” He further highlighted the enthusiastic response from local fans, noting, “In November 2024, 2NE1 held the 2024-25 2NE1 ASIA TOUR [WELCOME BACK] concert in Jakarta, Indonesia, to celebrate their 15th debut anniversary. Back then, the concert sold out immediately with fan demand so high that the one-day event was extended to two days.”

Park raised expectations by saying, “The WATERBOMB festival this time will go beyond a simple performance and feature leading Korean brands in beauty, fashion, food and beverage, healthcare, and more. We are also developing the K-City Project, which will bring K-pop content to every corner of Bali, including the airport, hotels, shopping malls, and city-wide advertisements, with K-pop content.”

WATERBOMB is a global music festival that blends water, music, fashion, and passion, and has sold out in every major city it has toured, including Seoul, Tokyo, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Taipei, Singapore, and Manila.

WAAO ENTERTAINMENT is an entertainment company registered in Jakarta for its Indonesian operations by the Korean “Red Angels” cheering squad, which has promoted nine K-pop concerts and cheering culture globally, across Brazil, France, Italy, Germany, Russia, Hong Kong, Japan, Vietnam, and Indonesia, since 2006, with nine events held to date.
