Hello there! i'm new to the forums; my name is Raina Lee and I'm a journalist based in NY, I'm writing an article and possible book about karaoke. I was wondering if anyone knew where to find market information, demographics on karaoke, like how many karaoke bars there are in the US / globally, number of karaoke users, how many karaoke boxes vs bars, regional demographics. Basic market info that you'd find that advertisers would want to know about karaoke. thanks so much!!! I really appreciate it! Raina |

Hello Raina and welcome to the forum. I'm not sure where you might be able to obtain the information you are looking for outside doing the legwork yourself. You could check with the sponsors of this site for information. I can tell you from experience that finding out where karaoke is done (karaoke bars as you say) is extremely difficult and a very fluid number. It changes daily and is karaoke is not only performed in bars but restaurants and bowling alleys. If by users you mean singers, again a very fluid and growing number. Karaoke does not seem to be on the wane but the increase and a growing number of people are investing in home systems as the cost of gasoline and smoking and drunk driving laws, and pockets of economic uncertainty limit their entertainment budgets and ability to enjoy themselves 'on the town'. Good luck with your project. |

Hello! thanks welcoming me to the forums. I think you're right; i does seem that karaoke has been gaining ground inthe past decade Stateside, but it is very difficult to find demographic info. I'm also trying to compiled a list of top 50 karaoke spots, but i can only speak for regional places (I've lived in LA and NY). That's interested that more people are starting to invest in home systems, but it seems like an accurate projection. I will have to look into those number also! Do you think companies that sell karaoke equipment might have a better idea of karaoke numbers? Thanks for your help!!

I realy don't think that would work either. Most professional Karaoke Jocks(KJs) use PRO PA equipment, the same stuff used for live band and such. Trying to calculate which products are used for karaoke only would be very difficult. Usualy the things labeled like "Karoker mixer" are usualy of less quality, and would only be good for home use, not that some "KJs" still use the stuff. I am thinking that the best way to get the most of the info needed is by experinceing it. You could check out shows in many places, and each one will be different. There are no set rules on how to run a karaoke show. Karaoke is a great form of enterrtainment, either @ a home party, or going to the local bar to see your fav KJ, have a few drinks, and sing some songs. If you need some more info feel free to contact me via PM or my Website. |
