# Joyland Festival

Joyland Festival is an annual music festival held in Indonesia. The festival also features film screening, stand-up comedy performances, various workshops, family activities and local community markets.

## History

The concept of Joyland Festival was first conceived and executed during the 2011 Djakarta Artmosphere by G Production, but held as a parallel music festival the year after. The inaugural edition of the festival was held over two days, on 16 to 17 June 2012 at the Senayan Swimming Stadium Park located inside the Gelora Bung Karno Sports Complex, Jakarta, Indonesia. The festival's first two editions highlighted local artists, particularly independent acts. After the 2013 festival, the next edition had not been announced since.
In 2019, Ferry Dharmawan, now under Plainsong Live production, announced the revival of the festival. It was held on 7–8 December 2019 at the Senayan Archery Field, Jakarta, headlined by Washed Out, Frankie Cosmos, Naif, Efek Rumah Kaca and Jamie Aditya.
The festival was put on hold during the COVID-19 pandemic until the 2022 edition was announced in Bali. It marked the first edition to be held outside of Jakarta. The line-up featured huge local acts, combining mainstream and independent scene across Indonesia. Felix Martua of NME gave the festival edition in Bali a perfect rating: five stars out of five, commented that it "set a benchmark and a blueprint for Indonesian music festivals" post the pandemic. The festival was also held in Jakarta subsequently on 4–6 November 2022, headlined by Cornelius, Moonchild, Years & Years, Thundercat, Mild High Club, Secret Number, Tennis, PREP, and Phum Viphurit.
The 2023 Bali festival was held on 17 to 19 March at the Peninsula Island, Nusa Dua and headlined by Phoenix, M.I.A. and Sigrid. The 2023 Jakarta festival was held on 24 to 26 November at the GBK Baseball Stadium, South Jakarta and headlined by Interpol, Mew, and Fleet Foxes. The festival then teamed up with media company Whiteboard Journal to curate Southeast Asian acts for its lineup.
The Bali edition of the festival was held from 1 to 3 March 2024 at the Peninsula Island, Nusa Dua. It was headlined by James Blake and Kings of Convenience. The 2024 Jakarta festival was held on 22 to 24 November at the GBK Baseball Stadium, South Jakarta and headlined by St. Vincent, Air, a collaboration set of Hyukoh and Sunset Rollercoaster, and Bombay Bicycle Club.
