How to choose the right karaoke bar
The choice depends on three things: group size, private or public, and budget.
- Solo or two of you, in the mood to sing among others → open karaoke (Sing Sing's open hall, Crazy Karaoke or Lunar). Usually free on weekdays.
- Small group (4-10) who don't want to sing in front of the whole bar → a smaller private setting (Sing Sing's Café Nol or Christmas room).
- Mid-size group (10-15), bachelor party, birthday → your own themed room (Sing Sing's Moulin Rouge, K2 Apreski or Tante Roosje).
- Large group (15-25) who want to dance → a large room with a lit-up dance floor (Sing Sing's Disco).
- Very large (25+) or wanting to rent the whole bar → Sing Sing venue hire, scalable to 300 people.

Frequently asked questions
Sing Sing is the highest-rated karaoke bar in Amsterdam with 4.5/5 on Google and 500+ reviews. With 6 themed rooms for 4-25 people plus an open hall for 300 it's also the most scalable option — from a spontaneous night to a full venue hire. Other options in the centre are Crazy Karaoke and Lunar (both on Rembrandtplein, open karaoke).
Open karaoke means singing on a stage in a big bar with everyone there — fun for solo or duos, usually free on weekdays. A private room is a separate space for your group with your own microphones and screen — no waiting, no strangers. At Sing Sing you can do both in the same night: start in your private room and end in the open hall (or vice versa).
For groups of 15-25 Sing Sing's Disco room is ideal (lit-up dance floor, own microphones). For 25+ or a full night with multiple rooms + bar you can rent out Sing Sing — scalable up to 300 people. Most other karaoke bars in Amsterdam are aimed at small groups or solo singers.
Sing Sing's open karaoke has free entry on weekdays — just walk in from 20:00. Other bars with open karaoke and free entry are Crazy Karaoke and Lunar (both Rembrandtplein). For a private room at Sing Sing you pay from €10 per person plus €10 p.p. minimum consumption.
