By stating “international standard”, it will take place at Indonesia’s top stadium. We are targeting audiences from across Indonesia’s provinces, including our neighboring countries. Therefore, we will work together with the local government to boost the surrounding economy, by inviting around 100– 200 MSME booths and tourist organizations to participate in this performance. He expected the concert’s success would contribute to an increase in MSME and tourism income in Solo, Jakarta, and surrounding cities.

All concertgoers will receive LED bracelets (wristbands) that will emit colors in time with the beat of the song.
