Karaoke in Dallas, TX

Dallas built its karaoke the convenient way: nearly every private room in one pocket off Harry Hines Boulevard, two of them facing each other across a short street, one of them still going long after the rest of the city has called last song. Bar nights take care of the rest of the city.

This guide covers the standouts, and every confirmed bar is listed below by neighborhood. The KaraokeList app keeps it current, free, and shows who’s singing tonight.

The hardest question is settled in advance here. Almost all of the private-room karaoke sits within about a mile of itself off Harry Hines Boulevard: two on Emerald Street, one on Goodnight Lane, one on Royal Lane. Want a room for your group? That is where you are going.

The rest of the city sings at sign-up bars, one or two nights a week each. A couple of those nights come with their own names and their own following. And Liquid Zoo runs it every single night, so there is always somewhere to walk into with nothing booked.

4 confirmed venues

The bar circuit

Sign-up karaoke across the rest of Dallas. One runs every night; the rest are worth checking the day for.

  • Liquid Zoo

    Oak Lawn

    Seven nights a week in Oak Lawn, and the sign-up bar to know when nothing has been arranged. Put your name down and the room is yours.

    Liquid Zoo runs karaoke every night.

  • The Goat

    East Dallas

    Two named karaoke nights, Wednesdays and Sundays, each with its own crowd — pick the one that sounds like yours.

    The Goat runs karaoke Sunday and Wednesday.

  • Pekers Bar

    Oak Lawn

    Friday and Saturday, with a later start, so it works as the second half of an evening rather than the whole of it.

    Pekers Bar runs karaoke Friday and Saturday.

  • Sharky's Bar & Grill

    Far North Dallas

    Thursdays and Saturdays, with a claimed 4TB of songs. If the problem is that nowhere has the track you want, start here.

The whole lineup is below.

Emerald Street

Gorae Karaoke and Duet K Town sit opposite each other on a short stretch of Emerald Street off Harry Hines, and both run private rooms seven nights a week. When Duet calls it a night, Gorae is still going.

Family Karaoke is a two-minute drive away on Goodnight Lane, open Thursday through Sunday. With Nozaro's on Harry Hines itself and mac karaoke on Royal Lane, five of the city's private-room venues sit inside one small pocket of north-west Dallas.

The rest of the week

Dallas spreads its remaining karaoke thinly, and a few of the nights are genuinely unusual in shape.

Barbara's Pavillion in Oak Cliff runs Thursdays and Sundays, plus the second Saturday of each month — worth checking the date rather than assuming. Gator's on North Market Street does the weekend. Island Club on Ferguson Road runs Wednesday and Saturday, and A Step Up Lounge on Walnut Hill takes Wednesdays.

For a single night: Sonrisas #2 on Samuell Boulevard does Fridays, and so does The Magic Time Machine up on Belt Line Road.
