It’s a fundamental part of social life in Bali. You will often see processions passing in the street. And you will often hear people say "tomorrow I can't, I'm having a ceremony". Certain ceremonies will have a limited impact on your trip. But others can upset all of your plans. I always sympathize, with a hint of fun anyway, when tourists tell me that they have a flight or a return boat to Bali scheduled on Nyepi day. This is indeed absolutely impossible because on this day the airport is closed, you have to stay confined inside your room and all activity stops. There is also an equivalent holiday dedicated to the sea in Nusa Penida called Nyepi Laut. To find out the dates of all Balinese events and their meaning, see the page dedicated to celebrations and events in Nusa Penida and Bali !
