Aperol Spritz returns to the Island of the Gods this year with a refreshed identity and an extended celebration. Formerly known as the Aperol Summer Festival, the rebranded Aperol Sunset Festival marks a shift in focus from seasonal festivity to daily magic, paying homage to Bali’s renowned golden hour.

Running from 18 July to 31 August 2025, the six-week-long Aperol Sunset Festival spans 25 curated venues across Bali—each selected for their picturesque twilight views. From iconic beachfront lounges to scenic clifftop bars, the festival invites guests to soak in sunset moments with Aperol’s signature spritz in hand.

The Aperol Sunset Festival celebrates the ritual of sundown, capturing it through the vibrant orange hues and refreshing flavor of Aperol Spritz. Known as “sunset in a glass,” the classic serve—made with 3 parts Prosecco, 2 parts Aperol, 1 part soda, and a slice of fresh orange—is designed to complement the relaxed and joyful spirit of Bali’s evenings.

 

Guests can look forward to a combination of daily activations and six major weekend parties at some of the island’s most recognized destinations. The festivities open on 18 July with a launch party at Alila Seminyak, followed by:

  • Finns Beach Club (1–7 August)

  • W Seminyak (10 August)

  • Café del Mar (15 August)

  • Ku De Ta (22 August)

  • Sundays Beach Club (closing party, 31 August)

Each event will feature DJ performances, Aperol installations—including the popular Vespa and kombi van setups—interactive experiences, and limited-edition menus.

In line with Venetian aperitivo culture, select venues will also offer food and spritz pairings inspired by cicchetti, small savory bites traditionally enjoyed alongside drinks. This combination of flavors, views, and atmosphere brings guests a taste of Italy while rooted firmly in Bali’s laid-back charm.

The soundtrack to the Aperol Sunset Festival has been curated to match the moment: progressive, rhythmic, and soulful beats that rise with the energy of the sunset, inviting guests to connect, unwind, or dance into the evening.

With this latest edition, Aperol continues its commitment to celebrating shared experiences, combining culture, flavor, and joy. The Aperol Sunset Festival doesn’t just mark a season—it marks a feeling, one that lingers long after the sun has set.
