Abstract: Through digitization, maintaining and promoting cultural heritage is being strengthened. Concerning this background, this study presents a new Indonesia cultural events dataset and automatic image classification for cultural events. The dataset was developed using the Flickr image platform, and the five cultural events image was collected including the Baliem Festival, Jember Fashion Festival, Nyepi Festival, Pacu Jawi, and Pasola Festival. Further, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) was developed for the classification method. A comparison of CNN models (VGG16 and VGG19) using several optimization configurations was performed to get the best model. The results showed that the VGG16 with image augmentation and dropout regularization technique performed best with 94.66% accuracy. This study hoped to support the heritage's digital documentation process and preserve Indonesia's cultural heritage.
