Rojo’s Tavern in South Lake Tahoe will have karaoke at 10:00 PM on Friday, October 16, 2026. The tavern is at Hwy 50 & San Francisco, and the event is for guests 21 and older. Karaoke also runs Thursday through Saturday nights, beginning at 10:00 PM in the Tavern, giving visitors and locals a recurring evening option during a Tahoe stay.

Midnight Blue Karaoke brings a catalog of more than 16,000 updated songs, spanning country, hip hop, oldies, 80s, rap and heavy metal. The show gives each singer a turn, and songs may be downloaded during the night when a requested selection is not already available. The karaoke team uses legally purchased music and does not use YouTube, so some requests may not be playable. Guests are also reminded to tip the DJ.

The event’s guidance encourages singers to choose material that fits their voice, know more than only the chorus and consider the room before selecting a song. Shorter or less familiar songs can be difficult for an audience to follow, while clapping for other performers helps keep the evening welcoming. The central idea is to treat karaoke as shared entertainment rather than a formal performance, with everyone getting an opportunity to take the microphone.

From Cobalt Cove Lodge
The beach fire pits are back for fall

Evenings at the lodge now end on the sand: s'mores kits at the front desk, blankets by the door, and the lake going quiet at dusk.

Wake up to the lake

Lakeside rooms with a private deck, a fire pit on the beach, and coffee at sunrise.
