From classics like "Sweet Caroline" to contemporary hits, there's definitely something for everyone. Plus, you might even discover a new favorite song to perform that you've never tried before. Don’t forget to warm up those vocal cords – the spotlight can be intense!

As we gather to celebrate music and camaraderie, we’ll be creating memories that will last long after the final note fades away. So whether you’re grabbing the mic yourself or just there to sing along and have a good time, it will surely be a night to remember! This event is designed for fun, connection, and perhaps some hilarious moments that will bond attendees together for years to come.

Did you know karaoke has its roots in Japan, where it has become a beloved social activity? The word itself comes from "kara" meaning empty and "oke" meaning orchestra, suggesting singing without a live band. Since then, it has taken the world by storm, with events popping up in bars and clubs everywhere! Live band karaoke nights like these allow both shy singers and seasoned pros to showcase their talents in a lively atmosphere.

And here's a fun fact to get you even more pumped: the longest karaoke marathon lasted a whopping 35 hours! That's right, a group of karaoke enthusiasts in the Philippines broke this crazy record, proving once and for all that when it comes to karaoke, the love of music knows no bounds! So join us for a night that celebrates both the joy of music and the spirit of community at Festival Boreal!
