The Jakarta and Banten area is home to three Super League clubs: Persija Jakarta, the capital's club and one of the most supported teams in Indonesia; Persita Tangerang; and Dewa United Banten.
Persija play at the 82,000-seat Jakarta International Stadium in North Jakarta, with Gelora Bung Karno in Senayan registered as an alternate venue. Persita's home is the Indomilk Arena in Tangerang, and Dewa United use the Banten International Stadium in Serang. All three grounds can be reached by car or ride-hailing app from central Jakarta, though Serang is a longer trip of around two hours.
If you are in Jakarta on business or a stopover, a Persija home game is the headline experience; book early for big fixtures, especially against Persib Bandung.
