FOTO Bali Festival

FOTO Bali Festival is an international photography festival presented by Nuanu Creative City, created as a meeting point for photographers, artists, and audiences to gather around stories told through images. Founded in 2025, the festival believes photography is not simply a record of reality, but a way of seeing shaped by memory, identity, culture, and the quiet moments that define everyday life.

This festival takes place in Bali, an island that stands at the intersection of enduring traditions and rapid contemporary change. More than a destination, it is a site where artistic practices are created, tested, and debated. Strategically positioned in Southeast Asia, Bali links regional and international creative communities.

Through curated exhibitions and public programs including talks, workshops, and discussions, FOTO Bali Festival opens space for dialogue across communities, generations, and geographies. Rooted in Bali yet connected to global perspectives, the festival aims to nurture Indonesia’s photography ecosystem, support emerging voices, and invite wider audiences to reflect on the world we live in through the lens and beyond it.
