This holiday is the most important day for owners of leather puppets and puppeteers when they give special homage to their leather puppets (wayang).
The puppets are taken from their box (keropak), placed in position just as if an actual performance were being given and blessed by the owner. A dalang (puppeteer) will remove all his puppets from storage – as many as 100 of them – and set them all up to receive the offerings.
In Ubud there is always 2 or 3 times a week a Wayang performance, close to Monkey Forest.
