To make the Balinese culture can sustain, the government of Denpasar city creates events for the culture preservation. This research will study the uniqueness and success of the culture preservation through events in Denpasar, which have been organized by the government (the department of culture). Ethnography is the research method. Literature review, observation, and interview are the techniques to collect information. The benefits of cultural events created by the Department of Culture in Denpasar are: a. to preserve the local genius of Balinese culture, b. to develop the cultural activities and creative arts, c. for religious purposes, d. as tourist attractions, e. entertainments for the communities, f. media empowerment of the artists and its group, g. economic benefits, such as promotional events for the development of tourism sector in Denpasar city, h. to support Puri Agung Satria. The elements of the culture preservation through events in Denpasar are the government, communities, entrepreneurs, the media, and educational institutions. We hope that the above can become guidelines for other tourist destinations in their efforts to preserve their culture and sustain their tourism development.
