Monday-night karaoke at Last Rites, the punk bar in Walker's Point. Pinball, local beer, and a low-key crowd. Monday programming has shifted before, so a call ahead never hurts.
The one most locals name first — free karaoke in the Moon Room at Landmark Lanes, Tuesday and Thursday nights, hosted by Simply the Best Entertainment. Bowling and an arcade share the building, and celebrity drop-ins have happened (Hugh Jackman, once).
Tuesday-night karaoke at Bremen Cafe in Riverwest — a laid-back neighborhood bar with pinball, local beer, and a patio. An easy mid-week sing.
Tuesday-night karaoke at Nomad World Pub, the soccer bar anchoring Brady Street. Loud, colorful, and central.
Karaoke four nights a week at Amelia's in Bay View — Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Pizza in-house, and one of the only solid Sunday karaoke options in town.
Wednesday-night karaoke at the Drunken Cobra, a Wauwatosa neighborhood bar and grill. An earlier 8:30 start than most.
Wednesday-night karaoke at Red Maple, a cocktail bar near Walker's Point and downtown. Confirm the address before going — listings are thin.
Wednesday-night karaoke (plus 2nd & 4th Fridays) at Walker's Pint, the city's oldest lesbian bar. Karaoke here has run for 20-plus years. 'Be nice or leave' — friendly to all.
Wednesday-night karaoke at Oak & Shield, the geek-culture bar downtown (formerly 42 Lounge). Sing comic-book, fantasy, and video-game classics over LOTR- and Harry Potter-themed drinks.
Wednesday-night karaoke at the Up & Under Pub on Brady Street — a live-music venue, so you sing on a real stage. Runs late.
Thursday karaoke at On Tap, a South Side bar and restaurant — and an unusually early 7pm start if you don't want a 2am night.
Thursday-night karaoke at Eckbar, a German corner bar in West Allis. The schedule isn't 100% reliable — call ahead.
Thursday-night karaoke at Nashville North, the country bar on Brady Street, with drink specials on karaoke night.
Thursday-night karaoke at Miss Katie's Diner near Marquette — classic diner ambiance, a student-heavy crowd, and a late finish.
Thursday-night karaoke at the Milwaukee Ale House in the Third Ward — house beer, cheese curds, and a chill sing.
'Maryoke' — late-night LGBTQ+ karaoke at Hamburger Mary's, Thursday and Friday from 11pm, running alongside the drag shows. Arcade games and craft cocktails.
Friday-night karaoke at Faklandia Brewing in St. Francis — a fantasy-storybook brewpub with an attached game store (Magic, D&D, board games) and a BBQ menu.
Friday-night karaoke at Tiny's, a packed neighborhood sports tavern in Cudahy.
Friday and Saturday karaoke at Rounding Third, a West Side sports bar near the Tosa border with a surprisingly wide song book. Runs late, twice a weekend.
Sunday-night karaoke at Grainger's Pub & Grill — one of the few Sunday options going. Verify the location before heading out.
Queer Karaoke at Cactus Club is a welcoming space for everyone to belt out their favorite tunes. It's a free, all-ages event, so bring your friends and enjoy a night of music and community. Arrive early to grab a good spot and maybe even a drink from the bar.
