Abstract

This article aims to examine the evolution and preservation of the Gredoan tradition in Banyuwangi, especially in White Tiger Village, as a form of cultural and religious approach in finding a partner and strengthening the social bonds of the Osing community. The methods used include a historical approach through interviews, document analysis, and historiography to trace its development, meaning, and preservation efforts. The results of the discussion show that Gredoan was originally a social and ceremonial ritual that functioned as a symbolic and social matchmaking medium, with the process involving symbolic gestures such as inserting coconut leaves into bamboo holes. Over time, the tradition transformed into a modern art performance that attracts tourists, while still maintaining local cultural values, spirituality and ethics. The preservation of this tradition faces the challenges of modernization, but can be done through innovation and active community participation as well as government support.
