Ramadan evenings in Jakarta always feel special. The city slows down. Conversations last longer. And iftar becomes the moment everyone looks forward to.
This year, the eighth edition of Iftar Under the Stars returns to Hallf Pati Unus with a fresh theme and a lively opening atmosphere led by the rhythmic energy of The Walking Drums.
Held from 20 February to 18 March 2026, the event transforms the semi-open venue into a warm and thoughtfully designed Ramadan space. Soft lighting, artistic details, and open air create a setting that feels relaxed yet social. It is an easy place to unwind after a long day of fasting.
The addition of The Walking Drums performance adds character to the evening. The live percussion welcomes guests with dynamic beats and sets a festive but still respectful Ramadan mood. It feels celebratory without being overwhelming.
A Theme That Reflects Simple Acts of Kindness
Now in its eighth year, Iftar Under the Stars carries the theme “The Butterfly Effect.” The idea is straightforward. Small actions can create a meaningful impact.
amadan is the perfect time to reflect on this message. A simple invitation to break the fast together. A quiet prayer. A shared smile across the table. These moments often stay with us long after the month ends.
The venue design supports this concept. Visual elements and lighting are carefully arranged to create a calm and reflective atmosphere. There is also an immersive installation space that guests can walk through. It blends art and lighting to represent how small gestures can ripple outward.
Reynaldi Hermawan Putra, Manager of Hallf Pati Unus, explained the intention behind the event:
“Iftar Under the Stars is not just about breaking the fast. It is a space for togetherness and reflection. Through this theme, we want guests to realise that simple moments can have a meaningful impact.”
The message feels clear throughout the evening. Nothing is excessive. Everything is intentional.
Over 40 Dishes in a Relaxed Semi-Outdoor Setting
Of course, food remains central to the experience. Guests can enjoy an all-you-can-eat buffet with more than 40 menu options. The selection includes Indonesian favourites alongside international dishes, light starters, grilled items, and sweet desserts.
The buffet is arranged for easy access. Guests can move comfortably without long waits. Despite accommodating up to 300 guests, the layout keeps the space airy and organised.
The semi-open concept helps avoid the stuffy indoor feeling common during Ramadan iftar hours.
This makes it suitable for many occasions. Families can gather without feeling rushed. Friends can catch up after work. Companies can host team iftars in a setting that feels polished but not formal.
The atmosphere remains friendly and relaxed throughout the evening. The Walking Drums performance adds rhythm at key moments, while the overall environment stays comfortable for conversation.
