Fun and entertainment Ubud

The Luh Luwih company sometimes performs at this temple-based cultural center. Founded by renowned legong dancer Desak Nyoman Suarti, this all-female troupe masters a variety of traditional Balinese dances, including legong, as well as sacred dances such as topeng. The show is sumptuous, and enshrines the feminine principle. For more information on the artistic performances, go directly to Ubud's tourist information center.

Discover the magic of shadow theater at the Oka Kartini, a captivating traditional puppet show. On a white canvas, shadows dance, animated by artists deftly manipulating leather puppets, mainly depicting scenes from the Mahabharata. Please note, however, that the performances are in Balinese, which may be less appealing to younger visitors. A cultural event not to be missed for an immersion in traditional Balinese art.

Live music and a friendly atmosphere await you in this bar to relax and enjoy a drink. It's located in the pleasant city center, and the must - there are a few pool tables for fun with friends or strangers. A stage hosts bands, often with reggae influences, but sometimes with a rock feel. The service is impeccable, and the cocktails always very good! We recommend a visit if you're looking for a place with friends to have fun and meet the locals.

It's one of the best night spots in Ubud: not too big, not too noisy, not too blingy, not too cheap. At Laughing Buddha, you move between the tiny street terrace and the large, high-ceilinged main room, try some well-prepared culinary specialities - with a wide choice of tapas to share or not, but above all you relax. On certain evenings, live bands perform. And always, as in many bars in Ubud, you can enjoy excellent cocktails! We strongly recommend it.
