Jazzy notes and amber sunset tones spell out a swell weekend night, casting a warm glow from the towering silverback statue where a family poses cheerily. Sundown live music session at the Playground area in Indonesia Design District (IDD) is alive with chatter as visitors stream in from all corners of the expansive compound. Some sit enjoying the atmosphere with a cup of coffee from Gioi on the terrace of The Material Lab, a cosy gathering space for brands to highlight their samples and conduct meetings. Meanwhile, others continue their exploration to see the familiar face of a certain clown standing at the front of the Townhall.
The Townhall is buzzing with IDD Flea Market filled with fine antiques, vintage arts, and nostalgic knick-knacks like the statue of Ronald McDonald. IDD has also hosted thematic bazaars and art exhibitions here, ranging from ICAD by the Bay Exhibition to Arch: ID kick-off night, World Cancer Day Exhibition, and Chinese art for the Lunar New Year.
Other events by various communities and related industries held previously at the Townhall include Oktoberfest PIK, a cultural exchange affair between Indonesia and Germany, and property developer events like the annual ASG Expo, Synergy Group Anniversary, and the Synergy Green Building Festival.
Moreover, the exhibition space consists of three joint sections totaling a standing capacity of 1,000 persons or 500 when gathered at round tables. From its entrance on the IDD side, across the 1,296 sqm Townhall is a semi-outdoor event area called the Markethall. On the side facing the Mandapa Lobby, each section of the Townhall has a window installation to showcase products or for the backstage area.
Thanks to its location, this place enjoys a seamless connection to the Erajaya Digital Complex (EDC) through an outdoor exhibition corridor at the Mandapa Lobby. Perfect for hosting international- standard events, IDD has three event spaces available designed by DP Architects as the master planner of the compound. Focusing on the people-centric concept, communities are welcome here as a public platform for creative collaborations between varying stakeholders and elements of society.
