About Karaoke Queue

Karaoke Queue is a free web-based queue management tool built for DJs, KJs, and anyone running a karaoke night. It replaces paper sign-up sheets and spreadsheets with a live, real-time queue that singers can join instantly from their phone.

How it works

A DJ creates a free account and starts a session. Every session gets a unique short code and a QR code the DJ can display on screen or print. Singers visit karaoke-queue.com, enter the code or scan the QR, and add their name and song choice to the queue. The DJ sees every new entry appear in real time and can drag and drop singers to reorder the queue, skip entries, or mark songs as complete. No singer ever needs to create an account or download anything.

Who it's for

Karaoke Queue is designed for DJs and KJs who run regular or one-off karaoke events — at bars, restaurants, private parties, corporate events, or backyard gatherings. If you've ever managed a karaoke night with a clipboard or a notebook, Karaoke Queue is the direct replacement.

For singers, the experience is frictionless. There's no app to download, no account to create, and no form to fill out beyond a name and song. As long as they have the session code — which the DJ displays or shares — they can join the queue in under ten seconds from any smartphone.

Use cases

Bars and restaurants — Run a weekly karaoke night without the chaos of a paper list. Singers sign themselves up and the DJ stays focused on the music.

Private parties — Set up a session for a birthday, bachelorette, or house party. Guests join on their phones and the queue runs itself.

Corporate events — Give employees a low-friction way to participate without needing to wave down a DJ or fill out a paper form.

Open mic nights — The same queue management works just as well for open mic hosts managing performers across a night.
