The 2025 Indonesia Festival Melbourne will be held on October 17, 19, and 20, with the theme "Glorious Sriwijaya." What does "Glorious Sriwijaya" mean?


Starting with Indonesian Night on October 17th, this year's Indonesian Festival has a deeper mission beyond facilitating B2B (Business to Business) programs. The health sector will be a focus of the upcoming Business Forum, with the hope of attracting Australian investors to invest in Indonesia.

However, the ultimate goal is to establish bilateral relations between regions in Indonesia and Australia. Therefore, in the future, the Indonesian Festival will focus on specific regions, as explained by Resika Tikoalu, Project Manager of the Indonesian Festival 2025, to SBS Audio's Indonesian Language Program.
