Watching in Bars & Pubs in Jakarta
NFL isn’t as popular as soccer in Indonesia, so it’s not guaranteed at every sports bar. Most focus on football (soccer), rugby, or F1. However, expat-friendly venues with multiple screens often show NFL on request, especially primetime games, playoffs, or Super Bowl (which gets special events).Time Difference Note: Jakarta is ~12-15 hours ahead of US time zones.
- Sunday 1pm ET games → Monday ~1-4am Jakarta.
- Sunday Night/Monday Night → Monday/Tuesday morning.
- Many bars open late or early for big events; call ahead or message via Instagram.
