About Here & Now Lounge
Here & Now Lounge is a karaoke bar on the first floor of a building on Ryrie Street in central Geelong. It trades five nights a week, with karaoke on the main stage, live local bands, comedy and games nights. The lounge has comfortable booth seating, big screens, a dance floor and a main stage where anyone can take the microphone. Two private karaoke rooms sit off the main area, each with its own sound system and seating. Each booth holds up to 15 people and is booked in one-hour slots. Singers choose from more than 120,000 songs, and many groups use a booth to warm up before taking the main stage on a Friday or Saturday. For private functions the team offers the whole venue, a reserved area, seated dining or a cocktail-style set-up. Food and drinks are tailored to each group, with options such as charcuterie and grazing boards, cocktails and coffee. The lounge hosts birthdays, engagements, hens nights, bucks parties and work get-togethers. Private and special events can also be arranged beyond the usual trading nights. The venue is on Level 1, and guests with accessibility needs can talk through arrangements with the team when they book.
