  • Jakarta's Transportation Agency will implement traffic management for concerts by EXO and Raisa on June 6-7, 2026.
  • The measures aim to anticipate increased vehicle volume around Gelora Bung Karno Stadium.
  • An estimated 37,800 to 43,000 attendees are expected each day for the events.

The Jakarta Transportation Agency (Dishub DKI) is preparing situational traffic engineering around the Gelora Bung Karno (GBK) complex to manage increased vehicle volume during concerts by K-pop group EXO and Indonesian singer Raisa on June 6-7, 2026.

According to Dishub DKI Head Budi Awaluddin, traffic adjustments will be made based on real-time conditions. Vehicles traveling from the Blok M area southward towards Tanah Abang northward can use alternative routes via Jl. Panglima Polim, Jl. Kyai Maja, and Jl. KH. Mas Mansyur. Similar detours are planned for traffic from west to south and east, and from north to south.

Dishub DKI will deploy personnel to key locations to ensure smooth public mobility. "We have prepared personnel for traffic control, parking supervision, and coordination with the police and event organizers," Budi stated.

The agency's anticipation is crucial given the multiple national and international events scheduled at GBK. These include the EXO Planet #6 ExhOrizon in Jakarta at the Indonesia Arena, the Raisa Live Concert 'Love & Let Go' at JICC Plenary Hall, and the Polytron Indonesia Open 2026 at Istora Senayan. Attendance is projected to reach 37,800 on June 6 and 43,000 on June 7.

We have prepared personnel for traffic control, parking supervision, and coordination with the police and event organizers.
