Implications of the Holiday Schedule

The extended Lebaran break in March 2026 is particularly significant as it coincides with the Nyepi Day of Silence, creating a long consecutive holiday period without the need for additional leave ³

. This arrangement is expected to boost domestic travel and tourism during the period.
