Batik National Day 2025

On this day, Indonesia proudly observes Batik National Day, a celebration of the artistry and cultural significance of batik, which was officially recognised by UNESCO in 2009 as an intangible cultural heritage.

Batik is a vivid expression of Indonesia’s diverse history and traditions, where stories are woven through intricate designs and patterns. This day invites us to reflect on batik’s enduring role in shaping the nation’s cultural identity, while acknowledging the artisans who continue to keep this craft alive and evolving.
