There's Something Different About Bontang City Carnival This Year, What Is It? Bontang City Carnival

Kapanlagi.com - The Bontang City Government, East Kalimantan, is once again holding the Bontang City Carnival (BCC) and Cultural Parade on Saturday, October 21, 2023. This annual event is held to commemorate the city's birthday, which is known as the garden city.

The Head of the Education and Culture Office (Disdikbud) of Bontang City, Bambang Cipto Mulyono, explained that there are differences in BCC every year. So, what sets this year's BCC apart?

The Carnival Group and the Cultural Parade are Differentiated

This year, the difference starts from the carnival group and the cultural parade. "Last year, the carnival participants and the cultural parade were combined. This year, we differentiate them, with the carnival first and then the cultural parade," said Bambang on Thursday (19/10/2023).

Musical Instruments Provided by the Committee

In addition, this year the carnival participants do not bring their own musical instruments. Instead, the music is provided by the committee. "We hope that this year's BCC will be more festive and of higher quality than last year," he added.

Additional Facilities Added

Efforts to improve the quality are made by adding several facilities to maximize the appearance of the carnival participants and the cultural parade.

"And for this year, we are trying to provide a different atmosphere, both in the performance area for the cultural parade. In front of the honor stage, we provide a carpet. On both sides of the road, starting from the honor stage to the front of the North Bontang Police Station, we lay carpets to make the participants more comfortable to perform," he explained.

Bambang mentioned that the registered carnival participants currently reach 35 participants. Meanwhile, the cultural parade involved 60 participants. "The participants consist of all organizations, community groups, Regional Apparatus Organizations (OPD), art studios, and carnival enthusiasts," he said.
