New Year's Eve Bali guestlist: Savaya, Zumana, Desa Kitsuné

At the time of writing, two of the three venues have announced a New Year's Eve night listed with a guestlist: Savaya, with Carl Cox, Nic Fanciulli and Prospa, and Zumana, with Francis Mercier. Desa Kitsuné's New Year's Eve, with Âme DJ, is ticketed only. Joining a list is free and gives complimentary entry before that night's cutoff, but it never guarantees entry, and line-ups and terms can change before Thursday 31 December 2026: the night's own page decides.

The calendar above shows each venue's coming nights. A night with a list carries a Guestlist button; a ticketed-only night shows only the Table button and says so on its page.

What has been announced for New Year's Eve

These are the nights as the venues listed them in October 2026. Read every line as an announcement, not a promise.

Savaya: NYE with Carl Cox, Nic Fanciulli and Prospa

The clifftop club in Pecatu, Uluwatu, 100 metres above the Indian Ocean, has announced "NYE" with Carl Cox, Nic Fanciulli and Prospa. When we checked, the night was listed with guestlist terms. Savaya runs several headline nights as ticketed only, so read the night's page again before you plan around a list. The venue itself is on the Savaya page.

Zumana: NYE with Francis Mercier

Zumana, the Savaya Group beach club at Sunset Bay in Kuta, has announced "NYE with Francis Mercier", with Rosey Gold also on the bill. It too was listed with guestlist terms at the time of checking. More on the place on the Zumana page.

Desa Kitsuné: NYE with Âme DJ, ticketed only

In Canggu, the garden of Desa Kitsuné hosts "NYE with Âme DJ". This night is ticketed only: there is no guestlist to join. Official tickets are sold only through the venue's own ticketing channel, and tickets bought anywhere else are refused at the door.

The week around it

New Year's Eve sits inside a run of big nights, and each follows its own terms.

• Christmas week: Zumana has listed special guests through the week.
• Saturday 26 December: Savaya's Full Moon, the monthly night that begins as a beach gathering at Nyang Nyang beach.
• The first nights of January: headliners at Savaya, among them Meduza on 1 and 3 January and Argy on 2 January.
• 5 January: Carl Cox at Desa Kitsuné, ticketed only.
• Desa Kitsuné through the period: as listed in October 2026, every Desa Kitsuné night from 22 December is ticketed only, New Year's Eve included.

If you are on the island for the whole stretch, every one of those nights needs its own registration or its own ticket.

How the guestlist works on a night like this

The rules are the same as on any other night. What changes is how little room there is for error.

1. Never assume there is a list. Terms are set date by date. A night announced with a guestlist can become ticketed only, and the reverse. The reference is the night's page, not last year's experience or a friend's screenshot.
2. Register early, and register everyone. "Guests are required to register individually for each event they wish to attend." FirstBali gives you the link to the night's guestlist page; you fill in the venue's form yourself and receive a digital ticket by email. The form, field by field, is in how to register for a Bali guestlist.
3. Mind the cutoff. The list gives complimentary entry only before the cutoff shown on that night's page; after it, a reduced entry fee applies. Do not carry over the cutoff of a regular night: read the one for New Year's Eve on its own page. Why this catches people out is explained in the guestlist cutoff guide.
4. Capacity is the venue's call. In the venues' own terms, "Registration on the guest list does not guarantee complimentary entry." Management can refuse entry, close an event or cap capacity. Registering early puts the digital ticket in your inbox; it does not hold a place inside.
5. Come as the door expects. All three venues are 21+ with valid ID, mixed groups and couples are strongly preferred, and each has its own dress code. The differences between the three are laid out in Savaya, Zumana and Desa Kitsuné compared.

Events can also be cancelled for inclement weather, and a guestlist registration does not transfer to another night.

Why a table is the only reserved space

A guestlist entry or a ticket gets you in, standing. A table is the only space that is yours for the night. The venue sets a minimum spend for each night, so the New Year's Eve terms are that night's alone, and at Savaya and Zumana a table is also the only way to leave and come back in.

The Table button on each night opens the venue group's own table map and pricing when it is published. FirstBali books the table with the venue on your behalf, and it is yours only once the venue confirms it. In high season, ask as early as you can: tell the concierge the venue, the night and how many you are, and FirstBali takes the request to the venue. How table bookings work in general is in the Bali table booking guide.

Getting home after the countdown

Whichever venue you choose, you will be leaving late, and the ride home is easier to settle before you go out than at the exit. A car with a driver can be requested from the transport page. Keep in mind where each venue is: Savaya on the Bukit peninsula in Uluwatu, Zumana in Kuta, Desa Kitsuné in Canggu.

Where FirstBali fits

FirstBali sends you the link to the right night's guestlist page, helps you choose between the three nights, and books tables with the venues; you register on the list yourself. Everything goes through the concierge, on the site or on WhatsApp.
