Here’s your chance to feel like a kid again (unless you’re already a kid reading this then you’re all set). Shooters Bali is a mini amusement park in the heart of Seminyak on Petitenget. It serves as an alternative to your typical “entertainment” in Bali which normally involves live music and night clubs in this area.
Have fun playing games, try your hand at axe throwing, test your swing with mini golf, or just sit with your mates and enjoy your time in Bali with some carnival food and beers. Here’s all you need to know about Shooters Bali before you visit.
Shooters Bali Location
Shooters Bali sits right on Jalan Petitenget, a vibrant street filled with things to do from the break of dawn until the early (or late) morning hours. Right beside Shooters is The Forge Bali, a 24-hour gastropub and sports bar, and Ling Ling’s Bali a couple spots over.
Upon entering the place you can immediately grasp the concept of Shooters Bali, a carnival-inspired amusement park / playground / entertainment center. It’s a very colourful and lively place that takes you back to the times your parents took you to the carnival in town.
The building itself is quite minimal. One massive tent-style roof, fully open-concept. No need for fancy windows, doors, and glamourous decor. Personally, I like that the focus is on the entertainment and services instead of trying to add ‘pizzazz’.
Parking is at the front. Washrooms are at the back. Kitchen and bar to the side. Games and picnic tables everywhere. That’s it!
Games at Shooters Bali
The focal point of Shooters Bali is their wide variety of games available – most of which are free to play, as long as you buy something, of course.
- Foosball
- Ping Pong / Table Tennis
- Giant Jenga
- Giant Connect Four
- Billiards
- Arcade Street Fighter
- Retro Nintendo
- Boxing Machine (20k IDR)
- Basketball Arcade (20k IDR)
- Mini-Golf (50k IDR)
- Axe Throwing (100k IDR)
- Shooting Range (150k IDR)
- Beer Pong (every Wednesday from 8pm)
Axe Throwing will set you back 100k IDR (about $10 AUD). Here’s you chance to let off some steam by hurling some axes (with skill) at a wooden target on the wall. If you’ve never tried axe throwing, I highly recommend you give it a go. The fun is totally worth the money plus you’ll get some laughs in while embarrassing yourself.
Shooters Bali also has a small Mini-Golf course, one of the main attractions among folks on a date. Not sure why, but mini-golf is top of the list of things to do on your first Tinder date. Great way to break the ice by completely missing the hole!
It would be a shame if a place called Shooters Bali didn’t have any shooting. Luckily, there’s a shooting rage. Here’s where you can test your aim at the target. This is the priciest of the paid games, going for 150k IDR ($15 AUD) per person.
Among other things at Shooters, you can grab some quick pics in their photo booth in the back. For just 50k IDR ($5 AUD), you’ll get couple of prints of the silly faces you decide to make.
Food at Shooters Bali
If you’re hungry after a series of losses at Ping Pong, there’s no shortage of food here. The food menu at Shooters Bali consists of all the food you can find at a carnival.
Don’t expect any plant-based burgers or gluten free wraps here. This is American-style junk food at its core and in my opinion, a perfect match for the casual atmosphere. Hey, it’s cheat day, right?
Choose from a range of pizzas, chicken wings, tacos, hot dogs, nachos, fries, burgers, and a ton of other snacks. You can even find your typical carnival sweets like cotton candy and the fried snickers bar – absolutely dangerous!
Drinks at Shooters Bali
For those of drinking age, you can still put your drinking hat on while you play games, although I’m not sure if that’s the best strategy to win. Shooters Bali has an entire drink menu filled with alcoholic drinks by the glass and even by the bottle.
You can settle for a Bintang beer (a must at some point while visiting Bali), a classic cocktail, or if you feel like you’ll be spending the entire night, perhaps invest in a bottle of liquor. Their beer happy hour runs everyday from 5pm until 7pm -20k IDR per beer! For cocktails you can grab a 2-for-1 deal from 9pm until 11pm. On Saturdays the promo runs all day long.
Every Wednesday is Beer Pong night from 8:00 pm until closing time. If you win you can grab some cool prizes like vouchers, skateboards, and even cameras!
For the non-alcoholics and halal folks, the drink menu stills has your basic soft drinks like Coca Cola and Sprite. They also have mocktails for 45k IDR if you feel like pretending to drink, or if you have a sweet tooth, go for one of their milkshakes.
Final Thoughts about Shooters Bali
In summary, Shooters Bali is a great place to hang with your close ones. The vibe, entertainment, and atmosphere genuinely brings people together to have a good time, share some laughs, and create some memories.
As someone who has lived in Bali for many years and seen almost all aspects of it, I can tell you that Shooters is one of few. There aren’t many alternative options for having a night out in Bali. The moment you step outside of your hotel or villa after 8:00 pm, your options include nightclubs, bars, live music venues, or the 24-hour Circle K down the street.
So Shooters Bali offers the perfect place as a casual night out for those who seek to avoid loud music and crowded venues. Whether you choose to play the games until closing time, or simply sit and chat with your mates, this is one of the best places to do so without having to yell in each others’ ears.
Address: Jalan Petitenget No. 43D, Kerobokan
Reservations: +62 819 9005 0999
Opening hours: Mon – Sun, 11:00 am – Midnight
Note: They also have a Sunday Market which is hosted on the last Sunday of every month. Though not as big or packed as the La Brisa Sunday Market in Canggu, it features products from local vendors – worth checking out if you’re in the area.
Book a Private Car and Driver
Hey, have all the fun you want, but don’t drink and drive scooter, please. You can either grab a taxi or rideshare service to and from Shooters Bali and stay on the safe side. Or get yourself your own private transport.
You can book a private car and driver for the evening / night. Your friendly driver will pick up you and your group in an air-conditioned SUV from your hotel or villa and take you to Shooters or any other venues you plan on visiting during the course of the night – all yours for 10 hours. At the end of your fun, your driver will take you back to your place, safe and sound.
Alternatively, if you only plan on stopping at a few places, consider booking a private car and driver – half day hire. You’ll have all of the above for 5 hours from pick-up until drop-off. I also have Bali Airport Transfers if you’re still planning your trip to Bali.
