Getting started
Everything you need to find karaoke near you and stay in the loop.
Welcome to KaraokeCrowd. This guide shows you how to find karaoke nights near you, keep track of listings you follow, and help others find karaoke too.
Browse venues
The Venues page lists every karaoke venue in the directory. You can scroll through, or jump to a specific area using the filters.
Venue status vs. karaoke status
Each venue has two independent pieces of information:
- Venue status (open, temporarily closed, permanently closed) tells you whether the place itself is operating. A permanently closed venue stays on the site for reference, but you won't find karaoke there anymore.
- Karaoke status (active, unverified, no known events) tells you whether the venue currently runs karaoke. An open venue might not have karaoke, and a venue with unverified karaoke might still run nights but nobody has confirmed one recently.
Both show up as banners on the venue page so you know what to expect before you go. See Verification statuses for what each label means.
Filters and search
On the Venues page, use the filter bar to narrow things down:
- Day of week. Pick which night of the week you're free. The list then only shows venues with karaoke on that day.
- Radius / Near me. Set how far you're willing to travel. If your browser shares your location, "Near me" centers the radius on where you are right now.
- Search by name or city. Type a venue name, city, or neighborhood to jump straight there.
You can combine filters. For example: Wednesday nights, within 10 km, near me.
The map
The map is the fastest way to see what's around you at a glance.
- Venue map shows every venue in the directory. Zoom in on your neighborhood to see what's nearby.
- Events map shows upcoming dated events. Use this when you want to see what's happening on a specific date.
Both maps support the same filters as the venue list (day of week, radius, search).
Follow venues and hosts
When you find places or hosts you care about, follow them to keep up with schedule changes. KaraokeCrowd sends at most one combined daily digest across all venues and hosts you follow, and only when changes matter.
For the exact digest rules, notification settings, host batch-following, RSVP visibility, cancellation alerts, and friends features, see Following and Notifications.
RSVP
On any event page, click I'm going to mark yourself as going. It helps you keep track of your plans and gives other singers a sense of how busy an event might be.
RSVP visibility and cancellation alerts are covered in Following and Notifications.
Events export
The Events export page lets you copy or screenshot a filtered list of visible events. For calendar apps, use the Subscribe to Calendar link on a venue or recurring karaoke night page.
City pages
The Cities page lists every city that has at least one karaoke venue. Pick your city to see all the venues there, organized by neighborhood. Some cities also have a "This weekend" page that shows events happening Friday through Sunday.
Tips for a better experience
- Confirm events you attend. After you go, hit Confirm Event on the event page. This moves it from Expected to Confirmed and helps the next singer trust the listing.
- Report cancellations. Show up to find the karaoke cancelled? Hit Report cancellation so nobody else wastes a trip.
- Check before you travel. Events marked Expected are generated from recurring schedules and are usually accurate, but a quick call to the venue is always safest if you're going out of your way.
That's it. Go find some karaoke.
