Prambanan Jazz is going through with the millennial generation. So, they bring in Callum Scott. The soloist who dominated the Billboard charts through “You Are the Reason” will perform on the first day of the Festival Show stage.
“In Indonesia, Calum Scott has a huge fan. During concerts in Indonesia, his tickets sold out. Here, we want the millennial to enjoy Calum Scott in affordable price,” said Anas. FYI, the first day Daily Pass ticket is only IDR 250 thousand.
International artists are brought to attract tourists. “The international artists only perform at Prambanan Jazz. We hope that the Asian fans can come here,” Anas added
