Karaoke Venues in Melbourne CBD

Booking Karaoke Venues: What to Know

Singing in the city means heading upstairs: both CBD karaoke venues here are on a first floor. LKF Bar & Karaoke shares its level at 22 Sutherland Street with a moody cocktail bar lit in neon, and Action Karaoke, at 242 Little Bourke Street, has a lift as well as stairs up to a floor of more than 15 private rooms.

Picking a karaoke room by headcount:

Up to 8 – a small room at Action Karaoke, 55-inch screen included, from $390 minimum spend.
Up to 12 – Action's medium rooms, built around a curved sofa.
Up to 20 – Action's large rooms, with tiered seats, two displays and smoke-effect stage lights.
5 to 25 – LKF Bar & Karaoke, where every one of the four rooms is wired with its own sound, microphones, screen and air conditioning, from $900 minimum spend.
Up to 40 – Action Karaoke's VIP suite in black and gold, its 85-inch screen curved and the sound surround, with table service.

Neither venue charges for the room itself; what you spend on food and drink counts towards the room's minimum, so dinner and a few rounds pay for the singing.

A neighbourhood gives each room its theme and name, and all but the smallest come with a private bathroom.
Three hours is the booking length, the last 30 minutes set aside to clean up, and someone from the bar team stays with your group throughout.
Everyone chooses from one of the set menus; cocktail-style events can upgrade from bao and spring rolls to oysters, beef tartare and lobster rolls.
Take the entire karaoke floor and it handles 145 on their feet or 100 at tables.

A late night on Little Bourke Street

The rooms open from 8:30pm and the night runs to 4am, with soft drinks and a snack platter counted in the room minimum.
Songs number in the tens of thousands, with English, Cantonese, Mandarin, Korean and Japanese hits all on the list.
Hungry singers can order edamame, tempura prawns, wonton soup, noodles or fried rice late into the night.
Birthday add-ons include balloons, flowers, a sparkler-topped cake, a welcome cocktail and a dedicated room host.
