BIGBANG Jakarta Concert 2026: Dates, Tickets & Venue (Jakarta)

Twenty years, one Saturday night

BIGBANG’s Jakarta date is Saturday, December 12, 2026. The show is held at the Sentul International Convention Centre, which everyone locally calls SICC. The timing carries weight: the group debuted under YG Entertainment in 2006, so this concert falls in their twentieth-anniversary year.

For Indonesian fans, who call themselves VIPs like BIGBANG fans everywhere, it has been a long wait. The catalogue they grew up on runs from “Lies” and “Haru Haru” to “Fantastic Baby” and “Bang Bang Bang”. This guide has no setlist, running time or performer list, so it says nothing about them.

SICC sits outside the city

“Jakarta concert” is shorthand. SICC is in Sentul City, a planned district in Bogor Regency, West Java, roughly 40–50 km south of central Jakarta. It sits a short drive from the Sentul exits of the Jagorawi Toll Road, the main highway between Jakarta and Bogor.

The building is a large convention centre used for big concerts, exhibitions and state events. The show itself happens indoors, under a roof. The car parks, drop-off zones and queues outside do not, and that matters in December.

December is the middle of the rainy season. Bogor’s old nickname is Kota Hujan, the City of Rain, and afternoon and evening downpours are normal at this time of year. Concertgoers usually carry a light poncho rather than an umbrella, since many venues do not allow umbrellas inside.

The road to Sentul and back

Most people come by car. Your main options:

• Private car or taxi on the Jagorawi Toll Road. On a clear run it is about an hour from central Jakarta. Saturday traffic leaving the city for Bogor and the Puncak hills often makes it much slower.
• Grab or Gojek cars, which work well on the way in. Getting picked up after the show is harder, because thousands of people are requesting rides from one venue at the same moment. Many fans walk out towards the main road before they request a car.
• Shared rides. Fan groups often split a car or a rented minibus from Jakarta, which also solves the late-night return.

No rail station serves the venue. The nearest KRL Commuter Line stops are on the Bogor line, and from there you still need a road journey to Sentul City.

Tickets and where the information lives

For K-pop shows in Indonesia, the local promoter issues the ticket categories, the seat plan and the entry rules. Sales go through the ticketing partner the promoter names. That promoter’s channels are the source for this concert’s prices and ticketing details. This guide does not quote any.

Many Indonesian concerts use a two-step system. Buyers receive an e-ticket and exchange it for a wristband or physical ticket, often with ID that matches the name on the booking. Experienced fans avoid resellers on social media. Ticket scams around big K-pop dates are a long-running problem in Indonesia.

How VIPs do a night at SICC

Indonesian K-pop crowds have their own routines. Knowing them makes the evening easier:

• Payment is mostly cashless. Food and merchandise stalls usually take QRIS codes, which you scan with GoPay, OVO, ShopeePay or a banking app. Visitors without an Indonesian wallet often carry some rupiah as backup.
• Freebies are traded outside. Fans hand out free photocards, stickers and snacks before the show. Nobody pays for them. Saying thanks, or swapping something of your own, is the custom.
• The lightstick is a crown. BIGBANG’s official lightstick is crown-shaped, and the fandom colour is yellow. You see both everywhere in the crowd.
• Fanchants are part of the show. Indonesian crowds are loud and well rehearsed, and they sing whole choruses back in Korean.
• Phones up, then down. Regulars film a song or two and then watch the rest. Blocking the view of the people behind you is the quickest way to annoy them.

Staying in Sentul, or heading home

Because the drive back is long, many out-of-town fans spend the night in Sentul City or Bogor rather than central Jakarta. Sentul City has hotels within a short ride of SICC. Bogor city is further, but it has much more choice.

Staying south also sets up Sunday, December 13. The Bogor Botanical Gardens (Kebun Raya Bogor), founded in 1817, lie in the centre of Bogor beside the Presidential Palace. Jungleland, a theme park, is inside Sentul City itself. Fans flying out usually travel from Sentul to Soekarno–Hatta International Airport by toll road. Without traffic it takes about an hour and a half.
