Bintan Lights Up with BRAVE 2025 - One Hour Away from Singapore, The Indonesian Island Hosts Their First Ever Bioluminescent Beach Event

Bintan, October 2025: Sixty minutes by ferry from Singapore, the serene island of Bintan roared to life  last weekend as BRAVE 2025 transformed its coastline into a glowing playground of music, light and  movement. 

Held at Lagoi Beach, the BRAVE short for Bintan Rhythmic Adventure festival drew over three thousand plus music lovers across Asia for an unforgettable bioluminescent beach rave, blending tropical energy  with world-class soundscapes against Bintan’s stunning natural backdrop. The event featured  appearances of international DJs such as Wukong, Faustix & Jade Rasif. The event reflected Bintan  Resorts’ vision to transform the island into a creative playground merging music, light and lifestyle into  one unforgettable experience that celebrates its vibrant spirit and modern appeal. 

Abdul Wahab, Chief Operating Officer of Bintan Resorts stated, “BRAVE isn’t just another festival; it’s  our way of showing that Bintan is evolving. This was about energy, creativity and youth, bringing  together travellers who want more than a vacation; they want an experience. It’s a bold new side of the  island and this is just the beginning.” 

Bringing rhythm to wanderlust, the festival also drew music enthusiasts from India who represent the  country’s growing trend of exploring the world through unique, experience-driven events. BRAVE spotlighted Bintan’s accessibility from India via Singapore, especially for Indian travellers seeking short,  high-value getaways. For Indian travellers, Bintan offers the ultimate “two-country escape” in addition  to all Singapore itineraries. A comfortable and scenic ferry ride from Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal in  Singapore brings one to Bintan within an hour, allowing travellers to experience the island’s luxury  resorts, adventure sports, pristine beaches and cultural festivals.  

Bintan is fast emerging as a top Southeast Asian destination for short-haul, experience-driven travel,  appealing to all age groups and interests. GB Srithar, Head of Tourism Services, VFS Global expressed  “Creative and experiential events such as the BRAVE bioluminescent beach rave attract both new and  evolved travellers, offering a unique Bintan experience. Visitors can enjoy the island’s idyllic charms 

alongside Singapore’s vibrant city life, creating the perfect holiday blend.”
