Omed Omedan Bali #96384233
Description

The single Sesetan boys are probably the happiest on this day, for they get to kiss the single ladies of their village without any consequences. Known as the kissing ritual, Omed Omedan is when the bachelors and bachelorettes aged 17-30 of Sesetan gather on the area’s main street. Divided into two groups men and women, they will take position and face each other; at a given signal, both sides will approach to the centre of the street, and male participants will pull and kiss sometimes forcefully the female participants while the rest of the villagers in the audience pour buckets of water over them.na, causing pigs to fight each other with the Sesetan residents struggling to separate them. Due to this strange occurrance, the festival was resumed, for it is believed that this annual ritual prevents disaster from descending upon the village.nnThe ritual will begin with everyone involved praying in the village’s Banjar temple. Once the praying is done, there will be a brief Barong performance that takes place on the road. By this time, hundreds of people from the neighbouring areas and visitors in the know will have already flocked to the road. The Omed Omedan normally takes place at around 2pm. Visitors wishing to observe the festivity are advised to arrive early to secure good positions to snap photos. 4/2017
