We keep tabs on 27 karaoke spots in and around Charlotte — this guide writes up 10. The rest are on the map in the app, next to the part that matters: what you’ll sing when the book comes around.
Early, late, and later
The nightly four split the evening between them. Saeed's Bar & Deli in Cornelius starts first, at 5pm. NoDa 101 picks up at 8. Jeff's Bucket Shop on Montford Drive waits until 10. Three of the four run to 2am, so the real question is how early you want to begin.
Steamers on Pierson Drive is the odd one out: karaoke nightly, but in the front, with poker and other events alongside. Worth knowing if your group wants something besides the microphone.

Out in Pineville, Sammy's, listed as a karaoke bar, sings Wednesday through Friday. Picasso's Sports Cafe on East W.T. Harris Boulevard takes Friday, 9 to midnight. And Kingpin Bowling in Kannapolis does Thursday to Saturday from 6.

Saigon Nights on Albemarle Road does karaoke in private rooms on Sundays from 4pm, the earliest Sunday start on this page.
