Finding karaoke shouldn't be this hard.
I've spent way too much time searching "karaoke near me" only to find outdated listings, venues that no longer exist, or bars that stopped hosting karaoke years ago. Google Maps doesn't show which days have karaoke. Yelp reviews from 2019 mention karaoke but... does it still happen?
The Problem We're Solving
As someone who travels frequently, I got frustrated trying to find karaoke. I just wanted to know:
- When is karaoke happening? Not just where, but when - tonight, this week, this month.
- Which days have karaoke? Not every bar does karaoke every night.
- Is this venue still open? Listings get stale fast.
- Private rooms or public stage? These are very different experiences.
None of the existing options gave me this information reliably.
Enter KaraokeCrowd
So I built what I wanted: a community-maintained directory with real events and real verification.
A Note About Our Data
Let's set expectations: we've seeded our database by collecting mentions of karaoke venues from Reddit posts. Some of these are a few months old. Anything that's not marked as "verified" or "confirmed" shouldn't be fully trusted - schedules change, venues close, karaoke nights get cancelled.
That's where you come in. If you know the specifics about a venue - whether it's still running karaoke, what nights, what time - you can submit updates through your account. Your contributions help save dozens of people from showing up to a dead night.
Discover Karaoke Events
The heart of KaraokeCrowd is our events calendar. See what's happening:
- Tonight - Find karaoke that's actually happening right now
- This week - Plan your karaoke nights ahead
- On the map - See events near you at a glance
- Recurring series - Know which venues have regular karaoke nights
Every event shows you the venue, the time, and who's hosting. No more guessing.
Browse Karaoke Venues
Of course, we also have a comprehensive venue directory:
- Karaoke schedule - See which days have karaoke at a glance
- Venue type - Private rooms, public stage, or both
- Evidence - We cite our sources so you know the info is real
- Last verified date - Know how fresh the data is
Community-Powered
Here's the secret: we can't do this alone. Karaoke schedules change, events get cancelled, new venues open. That's why KaraokeCrowd is community-powered.
If you're a regular at a karaoke spot, you probably know when things change before anyone else. KJs and hosts know their own schedules. That local knowledge is invaluable.
Ways you can help:
- Verify events - Confirm that karaoke is happening where we say it is
- Add new venues - Know a spot we're missing? Tell us!
- Update schedules - Event time changed? Let us know.
- Become a Guide - Help maintain data for your city or region
What's Next
We're just getting started. Here's what's on the roadmap:
- More cities - We're expanding coverage across the US and EU
- KJ profiles - Get credit for the events you host
- Real-time updates - Know about cancellations before you leave home
- Mobile app - Quick check-ins and verification on the go
