Small Businesses Reap Blessings from Banyuwangi’s Gandrung Sewu, Orange Juice Seller Hits Rp 1 Million a Day
The colossal Gandrung Sewu dance performance in Banyuwangi, held from October 22 to 24, 2026, brought a real blessing for local small business owners. Vendors around Marina Boom Beach, the event venue, saw a noticeable jump in sales. Panut, who sells freshly squeezed orange juice, said his income shot up from the usual Rp200,000 to Rp1 million a day. "Alhamdulillah, these three days my stall has been way busier," he said.
Yuni, who runs a food stall, and Deny, the owner of Osing Story clothing line, felt the same boost-Deny’s t-shirt sales jumped from 100 pieces to 300 pieces a day. Even vendors outside the venue, like Guntur who sells noodles in the Brawijaya area, pulled in double their usual revenue. Banyuwangi Regent Ipuk Fiestiandani said this kind of cultural event is meant to get the local economy moving and open up opportunities for local entrepreneurs.
