Worth seeing if you like cultural history. This dance was based on Rayman. Note you may have bought the ticket for the performance but you need a separate one to enter the park. Get their early to get a seat with decent view of dance and sunset. 6pm show is you want to see sunset.

With views of the southern sea, it's really enchanting, The crowd can be overwhming so do go early and get a nice seat and one with shade to avoid the sunset directly on your face. The entire show itself was entertaining from start to finish depicting the many gods of Hinduism. And the sunset as the show goes into night and the fire dance starts, it's a experience itself.

Fun fire dance! Very entertaining! My husband and I were even brought in at one point to dance with the dancers in front of hundreds of people. Highly recommend checking this out if you are already at the temple. 150K/person. Very fun and a neat experience!

This fire show and dance is an absolute must if you are visiting the Uluwatu temple. There are 2 shows one at 6 and the other at 7pm. Our driver managed to get the tickets for the 6pm show which was lovely as you can also witness the sun set. It is a very lively display of dance.

An unforgettable experience of another culture. As a tourist visiting from Canada, this was unlike anything I’ve ever seen, and I’d recommend it for that reason alone. There were two negatives that I have to note. 1) The seating is very uncomfortable, and you’re recommended to go and sit way early before the show to get a half decent spot — bring a cushion or something to sit on. 2) Buying online tickets was confusing and unclear, so we ended up buying tickets in person. We arrived an hour early to the ticket booth to ensure we got spots, waited in a zoo of a line, and this was in off season. Despite this, I still had to give it a five. The setting alone is worth a five — coliseum style seating overlooking the wide open ocean and one of the most majestic cliffsides you ever saw, watching the gorgeous sunset in plain view in real time with the performance unfolding in front of you. I have to street not to expect extremely elaborate acrobatic dancing, or magnificent tricks with dancing flames — this is not that. It’s the interweaving of the story with movement and chant (this group of forty men pretty much NEVER stops chanting for the entire hour!), and the playful nature of the presentation with plenty of audience interaction and personality that makes this experience so enjoyable.

Dramatic and entertaining show, especially the finale with dancing through flames. Difficult to know how authentic, and the nuanced Balinese dance moves were overwhelmed by the spectacle. The open air tiered seating was packed beyond capacity with tourists, even seating the last arrivals, after the performance started, in the aisles which seemed unsafe. Clouds obscured the sunset when I was there but I'm sure it is beautiful when conditions allow. I found the 70-man accompaniment tiresome and "gamelan" only in being percussion, so if this is your only gamelan experience I would suggest something else. It does make a nice excursion combined with the famous Uluwatu temple.

A friend of mine recommended this place to visit and enjoy the temple surroundings and beautiful view over the ocean. I was very glad I came for that alone but was also pleasantly surprised that there was a show. I purchased a ticket for this and enjoyed it thoroughly. The entire thing is done by voice and the show is quite playful and fun. It lasted around 80 or so minutes and was well done.

I'm glad we checked this out for the evening during our stay in Uluwatu. I never saw a performance like this before and it was nice to learn about the culture. It does get repetitive so the length of the show is just right. We bought our tickets online and got there to watch the sunset from the temple and see the show. It was very crowded. We were staying in Uluwatu that night so it wasn't far from the hotel so I'd say this is worth checking out if you are staying close by or doing a day trip of activities that includes this. But I wouldn't travel from very far away just for the show (we did see signs for Kecak dance shows in Ubud but did not actually go to see them so I cannot compare.) Of note, we took Grab to get dropped off and that was fine but it was blocked to get picked up afterward so we eventually found a taxi driver to take us back to the hotel. So it might be worth having your return transportation set up beforehand.

This show was worth the price of admission. The surrounding temple and the views of the ocean are spectacular. The show itself was fun and entertaining. The only terrible part is the seating horrible. The crowds coming to see the show are large and the bench seats are tough to sit in for hours. In top of that the sun beams down on those waiting for the show to start. So while the show is great, the seating is less than desirable.

Our smart driver took us to MELASTI beach for the Kecak, which was much less crowded than at Uluwatu. A bit of paper explained the different scenes of the performance and we were enchanted by this captivating, humorous and glamorous display. A beautiful location and we were spellbound!
