City of Culture | January-February 2025 Edition | NOW! Jakarta

2025 is here!

In this edition of NOW! Jakarta, we uncover the city's cultural features—from historical monuments to its thriving arts scene—and find out why Jakarta has been a crucible for Indonesia's intangible treasures and hear from key figures on how we can develop it further.

Our feature stories begin with a five-part answer, sharing their thoughts on the question: "What does Jakarta need to do to be recognised as a cultural city?" We move on to a showcase of Teater Keliling, one of Jakarta's leading community theatres, which has been performing for 50 years. Finally, we shared our curated list of the city's finest art and culture experiences and venues.

Explore your personal connection to Jakarta's cultural side in our latest issue.
