Seraya Budaya

Hours: 09:00-11:00 (Barong) and 18:00-20:00 (Kecak).

Morning show usually starts at 09:30; arrive 20-30 minutes early.

This is a staged cultural performance, not an active temple. Dress modestly and silence your phone.

The show runs daily and usually finishes about an hour later, which makes it a good first stop before continuing to Ubud. Arrive 20-30 minutes early, since tour buses tend to fill the front rows first. Agent or marketplace prices are often cheaper than the counter, so compare first. The venue is roofed, so it stays comfortable in the rain, and there is a restaurant, parking, and toilets on site. The gamelan and dramatic sound effects are fairly loud, so sit further back if that bothers you. For an evening option, Kecak Batubulan runs on a separate ticket.

Seraya Budaya sits on Jl. Raya Singapadu, Singapadu, Sukawati, Gianyar, about 20-30 minutes from central Ubud, 30-40 minutes from Sanur, and 45-60 minutes from Ngurah Rai Airport. It is on the main road of the Singapadu-Batubulan corridor, on the same side as Bali Bird Park and several Batubulan temples. The venue does not provide transfers, so arrive by private vehicle, ride-hailing car, or through an agent who arranges the route. Parking is available inside the grounds.

It works as an opener on an Ubud corridor day, about 20-30 minutes from central Ubud and on the way in from Sanur or the airport. The 09:30 morning show usually ends before lunch, so it pairs well with Bali Bird Park in Singapadu or culture stops in Batubulan before you continue to Ubud. Allow about 75 minutes including arrival, parking, and photos after the show. For an evening option, Kecak Batubulan runs 18:00-20:00 and can close the day instead.
