Culture at the centre

Bali Nyonga, at the heart of every day

The 2027 programme puts our culture first: the Njang, the uniforms, cultural dancing and the dance competition, and the Mungaka language woven through the weekend.

  • Njang
  • Uniforms
  • Dancing
  • Mungaka

Why 2027 is different

Three things at once

  1. Bali culture at the centre of everything

    Culture through to midnight on Friday, dancing and the dance competition on Saturday.

  2. A weekend not only about money

    Fundraising moves out of the party and into the year. The Gala is a celebration again.

  3. An initiative BCA Europe can lead

    Enabling our Bali Talent launches in 2027: skills and craft from home reaching the market through us.

The UK hosts. Europe owns it.

Trust is earned by reporting

A monthly report to every chapter on progress, money and risks. Milestone gates. Decisions above an agreed value go to BCA Europe leadership.
