During the festival, the committee is planning to launch Legian Entrepreneurs Community (HI.PEL) as well.
Legian Beach is a popular surfing destination thanks to its challenging waves and white sand beach.
The number of visitors to the annual festival always increases every year. In 2015, it attracted a total of 65,500 visitors and the number later went up to 83,500 visitors in 2016. (kes)
