Mark Your Calendars: Comifuro 21 Details
Scheduled for November 15–16, 2025, at the Indonesia Convention Exhibition (ICE) BSD in Tangerang, this biannual event promises to be bigger and better than ever. Imagine hundreds of independent creators showcasing their unique works—from stunning illustrations and manga to handcrafted crafts and original novels. It’s a paradise for anyone passionate about Japanese pop culture and local artistic talent.
What Makes Comifuro 21 Special?
Often hailed as a creative hub for indie artists, Comifuro is more than just a marketplace. It’s a platform for self-published creators to share their passion projects with a like-minded community. And this is the part most people miss: the event also features a lively doujin market, where creator circles debut new works inspired by various fandoms. Whether you’re into anime, manga, or original stories, there’s something here for everyone.
But that’s not all—the main stage buzzes with energy, hosting cosplay parades, musical performances, and thought-provoking talk shows on the growth of the creative industry. From acoustic sets to anisong concerts and even virtual idol appearances, the lineup is as diverse as the attendees themselves. Controversial question: With so much happening, how will you decide what to prioritize?
Getting to the Venue: Your Transport Options
Comifuro 21 will take place in Hall 10 of ICE BSD, easily accessible via public transportation. The most convenient route? Hop on the KRL Commuter Line and disembark at Cisauk Station. From there, free shuttle buses will whisk you to the venue from 07:00 to 21:30 WIB. Pro tip: These shuttles also provide return trips to the Cisauk Intermoda Terminal, so you don’t have to worry about getting back.
If trains aren’t your thing, consider the Transjakarta S11 Corridor (Jelambar–Serpong), which stops near BSD City or Giant BSD. From there, a quick ride-hailing service will get you to ICE BSD in no time. But here’s a potential debate: Which transport option is truly the most efficient for a weekend packed with activities?
