This study aims to compare the responsibilities of the local governments of Ponorogo Regency and the Special Region of Yogyakarta in preserving the intangible cultural heritage of Reog Ponorogo and Yogyakarta’s Wayang Kulit after their recognition by UNESCO. The study addresses the issue of how cultural preservation efforts are implemented in both regions. This research employs a normative juridical method with statutory, conceptual, and comparative approaches to analyze national and local regulations as well as their implementation. The findings indicate that Yogyakarta has established strong local regulations, active community participation, and institutional support through education and the economic empowerment of artists. In contrast, Ponorogo Regency continues to face challenges related to the regeneration of cultural practitioners, weak local regulations, and reliance on ceremonial-based preservation approaches. This study underscores the importance of legal integration, social participation, and institutional support in the sustainable preservation of cultural heritage.
