The show
A host who sings, rather than a machine parked in the corner. GC Karaoke bring a DJ who's also a vocalist, so the gaps get filled instead of dragging while somebody picks the next song. The library runs past 60,000 titles across a spread of genres and languages, and the gear is proper karaoke and PA equipment, not a laptop and a borrowed speaker. Setup and pack down are their problem, not yours. You'll get people singing who swore they wouldn't, which is really the whole test of a karaoke night.
On the day
Around 3m by 3m is the recommended footprint, though they'll work to a smaller space if that's what the room gives them. Corporate bookings are a bit different: the venue needs to supply a PA that meets their tech spec. If you don't have one, they can sort out a quote through a supplier they use once they know the venue and how many people are coming.
Performance options
Party bookings cover up to 100 guests, which suits birthdays, hens nights and the sort of Friday that gets loud. Every one of them includes the full audiovisual rig: the song catalogue searchable on any phone through a QR code, a teleprompter so the lyrics are easy to follow, two radio mics, a PA sized for function rooms, restaurants and houses, a lit-up DJ booth with Pioneer decks, colour bar lighting with effects, a gold sequin backdrop three metres by two, and a prop box of wigs and hats. On top of that you pick your line-up. Rising Star is three hours with one singing DJ host who runs the night, sings between the karaoke numbers and orders the sets so the energy doesn't sag. Rockstar adds a live musician alongside the host.
