Tourists dance to live music at one of the bars in Gili Trawangan. In years past, parties took place on the beach until any hour. Now all bars close at 11 p.m., except for a single bar that is open until 3 a.m. each night, where the party moves after 11 p.m. The bar hosting the late party is changed through rotation each day, except for Thursday, when all bars and parties are done at 11 p.m. on the eve of Muslim Friday prayers.
