New Sira Village Retail Complex Draws 60,000 Visitors in First 3 Days

Sira Village, a new open-air shopping and cultural venue in Bali, attracted 60,000 visitors in its first three days after opening on July 31, 2026. Visitors included local Balinese residents, domestic tourists, and foreign tourists, drawn by its seaside setting, cultural performances, and local small business bazaar.

A new shopping and cultural venue called Sira Village Grand Outlet Bali recorded a total of 60,000 visitors during its first three days of operation, from July 31 to August 2, 2026. Visitors included local Balinese residents, domestic Indonesian tourists, and foreign tourists.

Tantowi Yahya, President Director of PT Grand Outlet Bali, said in a written statement that the turnout was "not just about numbers, but proof that our big dream of building a space that unites nature, culture, and the people of Bali has finally been felt directly by many people, especially Balinese residents."

According to Tantowi, the strong public interest was driven by Sira Village's concept of offering an open-air shopping experience integrated with ocean views and various inclusive creative spaces. The opening festivities were marked by cultural performances, music stages, and an "Island Bazaar" featuring numerous micro, small, and medium enterprises (UMKM).

Things to Consider

Since the venue is newly opened and likely to remain busy, visiting on weekdays or during early hours may help avoid crowds. Parking could be congested, so using a taxi or ride-hailing app is advisable. The venue also features many local small businesses (UMKM), making it a good opportunity to purchase local crafts and food.
