PAWAI (PAWAI) 2026 is scheduled for Oct 3-4, 2026 at Hotel Grand Istana Rama. The announced theme is Gods Paradise. Guest of honor information lists Agitype01.
PAWAI, short for Party Along With Anthro Indonesia, is a separate Anthro Indonesia event in Bali. It is not the same event as IWAG. The brand, dates, venue, and official site all point to a distinct convention weekend with its own identity.
The official site currently lists October 3-4, 2026 for PAWAI 2026: Gods Paradise, with the event set at Hotel Grand Istana Rama in Kuta, Bali. That resort setting is a clear shift from IWAG's Greater Jakarta hotel model and is part of why the split matters.
For attendees, PAWAI looks like the more destination-style Indonesian option. Bali changes the travel math, the mood, and probably the social rhythm of the event even before programming details are filled in. If IWAG is the Jakarta-area anchor, PAWAI is the separate Bali branch that deserves its own listing.
Ngurah Rai International Airport (DPS) in Bali is about 4 km from Hotel Grand Istana Rama in Kuta, making the transfer roughly 15 minutes by taxi or ride-hailing service. Grab and local taxis are both available at the airport. For international attendees, Bali has direct flights from many Asian hub cities, and the short distance between the airport and the venue makes arrival logistics simple.
Hotel Grand Istana Rama is the convention venue itself and the most convenient place to stay. The hotel is a four-star resort in central Kuta, close to the beach and surrounded by restaurants and shops. If the convention hotel is fully booked, the wider Kuta area has dozens of hotels and guesthouses at a range of price points, all within easy reach of the venue.
PAWAI continued its series of successful Bali gatherings in 2025, focusing on creator networking and community building. These events solidified the regional presence ahead of the 2026 "Gods Paradise" iteration.
