Top 5 Karaoke Rooms — Something-Something

Going to a gig with friends is always a fun way to spend the night out but what do you do when you want to sing Aretha Franklin at the top of your lungs with all the judgement of your friends? You go to a karaoke room, of course! The fun of singing karaoke with none of the awkwardness from random strangers. Here are some of Wellington’s best karaoke rooms.

5. NewKor

Upstairs above the restaurant, NewKor has some karaoke rooms but finding the pricing online can be a bit of a hassle. An estimated $30/h for 3 people (increasing the more you have), NewKor offers a good night after a delicious meal but could make finding information a little more user-friendly.

4. K-ZONE

Depending on the number of people and the day of the week, a karaoke room for an hour can range from $30 - $45/h for a small room that fits 6 people to $60 - $75/h for a larger space that fits 30. Perfect if you can find 30 people to pitch in but not ideal if you’re a diva who wants that solo spotlight!

3. TK BBQ & Buffet

Costing $40/h for up to 10 people, TK BBQ & Buffet is perfect for large groups who have had their fill of soju and pork and then sing to their hearts burst and their voices lost. They recommend booking on a Friday and Saturday night as they get crazy busy with parties who share the same idea.

2. ZZAN

Chicken, beer then heading into a karaoke booth to sing some tunes? You cannot believe how nostalgic this feels after doing this in Korea. Costing $2 per song, you can hog the booth for as long as you want without needing to pay the full hour. The booths, however, only fit 2 people so not too much of a crowd can join but it is a fun way to end the night.

Home

I bet you didn’t expect this to be on the list, did you? With a Spotify account (thanks to the karaoke update) and a karaoke Bluetooth microphone, you can bust out your favourite tunes for free and in the comfort of your own home. Who needs to go out and spend lots of money when you can invite a few friends over and all pretend that you are the next big thing to be discovered!
