AYANA Bali Unveils a New Chapter for Large-Scale Events

Anchored by the debut of its new Grand Ballroom, AYANA Bali’s expanded meetings and events offering brings together large-scale venues, ocean-facing event spaces, and resort-wide flexibility within a single integrated destination.

AYANA Bali, Indonesia’s largest integrated resort destination, is ushering in a new chapter for large-scale events with the debut of its new Grand Ballroom and expanded event facilities, launching commercially from 1 September 2026. Event enquiries and bookings are now open, with strong early interest already building for the final quarter of 2026 and throughout 2027.

Set within AYANA Bali’s 90-hectare clifftop estate in Jimbaran, the expansion further strengthens the resort’s position as one of the island’s premier destinations for meetings, incentives, conferences, exhibitions, weddings, and large-scale celebrations. Built around a resort-wide event experience, AYANA Bali seamlessly connects conference facilities with oceanfront venues, destination dining, accommodation, and cultural and wellness experiences within a single integrated estate.

Located just 30 minutes from Ngurah Rai International Airport and away from the island’s busiest tourist areas, AYANA Bali comprises 993 guest rooms across four hotels, giving it the largest accommodation capacity of any integrated MICE destination in Bali. The resort also offers one of the island’s most diverse integrated MICE environments, featuring 31 dining venues, 14 swimming pools, the award-winning AYANA Spa with 47 treatment rooms, and extensive wellness, recreation, and entertainment facilities.

A resort-wide tram system further simplifies delegate movement across the property, reducing logistical complexity for both planners and attendees.

At the heart of the expansion is the new Grand Ballroom, designed by global architecture and design firm Gensler. Spanning 1,850 square metres of pillarless space with nine-metre ceilings, the ballroom accommodates up to 2,300 seated guests and has been conceived for international conventions, corporate summits, incentive programmes, destination weddings, gala dinners, and major brand events.

Integrated audiovisual infrastructure, including three large-scale LED screens positioned across two sides of the ballroom, supports high-impact productions with minimal set-up requirements.

Surrounding the Grand Ballroom is a newly enhanced collection of event spaces designed to accommodate a wide range of event formats. An expansive foyer provides ample space for registration and networking, while the Veranda opens onto sweeping 270-degree ocean views. Beyond, 20 breakout rooms support concurrent sessions of varying sizes, many benefiting from natural daylight, alongside dedicated VIP holding facilities adjacent to the ballroom.

A defining feature of AYANA Bali’s expanded meetings and events offering is the seamless transition between large-scale indoor functions and outdoor venues. The Grand Ballroom is among the few large-scale ballroom venues in Bali to offer direct access to ocean-facing outdoor event spaces, allowing conferences and formal gatherings to flow naturally into sunset cocktails, dinners, and open-air celebrations without requiring guests to relocate elsewhere on the island.

The architectural concept draws inspiration from Bali’s ancient Sanga Mandala philosophy, creating a harmonious relationship between people, place, and the surrounding environment. Sustainability also remains central to AYANA Bali’s operations. As an EarthCheck Gold-certified destination, the resort’s integrated model helps reduce transportation requirements and event-related emissions—an increasingly important consideration for international organisations and ESG-focused planners.

This approach reflects the Balinese philosophy of Tri Hita Karana, which emphasises harmony between people, nature, and spiritual wellbeing.

Together with existing meeting and event facilities across the resort, including venues at RIMBA by AYANA Bali, the expansion further reinforces AYANA Bali’s position as one of Indonesia’s most comprehensive destinations for large-scale meetings, celebrations, and incentive travel. With strong interest already building, prime dates for late 2026 and throughout 2027 are expected to be secured well in advance.
