In addition, he also mentioned that the installation of LED perimeter board aims to give local businessmen the opportunity to promote their business in Bali United.[8]

The visitors will be able to watch the Bali United match from inside Bali United Cafe. Bali United Cafe will operate daily from 11.00 to 23.00 Indonesia Central Standard Time.

Expansions

Bali United did some renovations for Asian competition in 2018. Renovations included repairing and increasing the number of toilets as well as improving the lighting quality of the stadium lights. The current floodlights are 1,200 lux according to the standard of AFC.[10]

In addition, management planned to increase the capacity of the stadium: 600 places for south wing tribune and 600 for south tribune. So there is a total addition of 1,200, bringing the total capacity to 26,200.[11] Additional grandstand construction had been started since 3 November 2017 for the laying of the first stone. The process of adding the capacity of the tribune took approximately two and a half months and was to be completed early 2018.[12] After adding seats to the East-Tribune the capacity is now 22,931.

After the stadium was chosen to be a venue for the 2021 FIFA U-20 World Cup, renovations work are expected to be done to the stadium. In early 2020, more seats are added to the stands as an effort to make the stadium an all-seater stadium that is suitable for the tournament.
