- Nights set to a decade (70s, 80s, 90s)
- Picking specific styles (Rock, Pop, Country)
- Songs from movies
- Top hits from different years
Helping Shy Guests Join In
Good theme choices can help quiet guests turn into stars. You can build confidence by:
- Singing together in groups
- Having duets
- Wearing fun clothes that fit the theme
- Making songs get harder as the night goes on
A well-thought-out karaoke theme makes a space where everyone feels okay to sing, turning a regular party into an awesome singing event.
