Nongkrong Festival: Soda Gembira

  • Music
  • Dance

Nongkrong’s club night, Soda Gembira, returns for its second iteration. A nod to the classic Indonesian pink drink, they're bringing the same playful energy to the dance floor, with a cheeky edge that’s all about self-expression and shaking ass. With dancers and DJs taking over, expect a journey through Indonesia’s underrepresented club sounds from dangdut, koplo, funkot, jedag jedug to breakbeat. Get ready to get sweaty.

The lineup features Amira, Cristal No.5, Olita, Rivi, and Sakidasumi, with performances by Miss Diesel and Sakidasumi.

The rooftop opens from 3pm with Indonesian DJs Yani, Bobo and Ones spinning tunes and there’s no Nongkrong event without food so Ulam Rasa will be serving Indonesian food, available from 5pm (limited dinner pre-orders available).

Rooftop open from 3pm, club from 9pm.

This events is 18+.
