Ready to cheer on Indy’s next big thing?

Introducing Rising Star Karaoke, a high-energy showcase where local talent lights up the stage at the iconic Arabian Room in the Murat.

Whether you’re a performer chasing the spotlight (hint: it’s free to enter) or a fan ready to vibe along ($5 cover, one drink minimum), it’s the place to be on the first and third Thursday of each month, starting Thursday, June 5.

Pro tip: Each event builds toward an epic sing-off at the end of the year, where the monthly winners will compete for a shot at landing a contract with a local producer — so the stakes (and the vocals) only get higher.

Brought to you by Downtown Dinner Theatre, this is more than karaoke — it’s a launchpad for Indy’s rising stars.

Come sing your heart out or discover the next voice of the city.

Music to our ears.
