Festival Indonesia: Pesta Anak Bangsa is an event that combines music, culinary delights, fashion, and showcases over 170 booths of Indonesian micro, small, and medium enterprises (UMKM), with 20 of them are BCA Banga Lokal UMKM. Through this event, BCA supports the growth and development of local UMKM within an increasingly competitive business environment.

EVP Transaction Banking Business Development of BCA, I Ketut Alam Wangsawijaya, stated, "BCA and the Festival Indonesia: Pesta Anak Bangsa share the same vision of supporting UMKM to continue growing and producing outstanding local products. BCA's support for UMKM through the Festival Indonesia: Pesta Anak Bangsa is a tangible manifestation of our commitment to empowering the UMKM sector, which is a crucial pillar in the national economy."

One form of support provided by BCA during the Festival Indonesia: Pesta Anak Bangsa is a cashback promotion of up to Rp 50,000 for transactions at all UMKM booths using BCA's QRIS (Quick Response Code Indonesian Standard) through the myBCA app, BCA mobile, or Sakuku during the event period from 8th to 9th July 2023. Visitors simply need to exchange their transaction receipts at the BCA booth available in the exhibition area to receive the cashback.

"We hope that this festival can be enjoyed by various segments of society and further enhance their love for various local products. With the cashback promotion that BCA offers, we also hope that it will encourage visitors to purchase UMKM products.
