According to plan, this event will involve students from Rawa Bunga SDN 11 and 12, Cipinang Muara SDN 06, SMAN 54, PKK cadres from Rawa Bunga Urban Village, and East Jakarta Batik Painting Community (Kombajati).

The students will perform various Betawi dances and cultures together with Disparbud PPSB's fostered gambang kromong. Kombajati will show various Betawi batik products. While PKK cadres will demonstrate Betawi culinary foods.
