For one month this October and November, Bali’s food and hospitality community will come together to celebrate the island’s diverse culinary landscape through the inaugural Bali Good Food Month. Presented by the Bali Restaurant & Café Association (BRCA), the month-long programme will bring together restaurants, cafés, hospitality professionals and food lovers for a series of dining experiences, collaborations and special events across the island.

Running from 16 October to 14 November 2026, Bali Good Food Month is designed to highlight the people and places shaping Bali’s ever-evolving food scene. From chefs and restaurateurs to baristas, bartenders, producers and hospitality teams, the initiative celebrates the talent behind the island’s restaurants and cafés, while creating opportunities for collaboration and creative exchange.

Bali Good Food Month will feature a series of dining and culinary activities, seeing unique collaborations between different restaurants, bars, brands and chefs. The culmination of BGFM will be SIP & SAVOUR, a major closing event open to all.
