Make a whole evening of it — everything under one roof

Karaoke bar in The Hague
BLÊR is the place to be for anyone looking for a night out like no other. Tucked away in the basement of Bleyenberg, you’ll find seven private karaoke booths, each with its own style, atmosphere, and microphones. Whether you come with six people or twelve, you can sing, scream, cheer, and laugh here without anyone watching. Total freedom—but with double soundproofing.
Why BLÊR is the only true private karaoke spot in downtown The Hague
BLÊR is the only place in downtown The Hague that offers truly private karaoke booths. No open stage. No shared karaoke booth where you have to wait your turn. No strangers watching. When you book a booth, it’s exclusively yours and your group’s for two hours. Period.
The seven booths are located in the basement of Bleyenberg at Grote Markt 10, a three-minute walk from the Grote Markt tram stop and a five-minute walk from Spui. Right in the heart of the nightlife district, on the lively square.
Each booth is double-soundproofed. That means: whatever you sing stays inside your booth, and you won’t hear what the group next to you is singing. No open-mic stage where you have to sing in front of strangers. No shared room. No waiting in line for the microphone. No interruptions from the next singer.
The 40,000+ karaoke songs are available in more than 10 languages—Dutch, English, Spanish, Turkish, Arabic, German, French, Italian, Portuguese, Korean, and more. From André Hazes to Beyoncé, from ABBA to K-pop, from Bon Jovi to the latest Billboard hits. Plus, 30 ready-made playlists for those who don’t want to choose.
BLÊR is part of Bleyenberg: a multi-concept hospitality venue featuring the Bar Bley restaurant and bar on the ground floor and a rooftop bar on the third floor—the only rooftop bar in the center of The Hague with a publicly accessible outdoor terrace. During the summer months (April through September), the rooftop is open to the public, where you can enjoy pre-dinner cocktails with a view of the Grote Markt; during the winter months (October through March), Bar Bley is open to the public, and you can dine and have drinks on the ground floor. In both cases, you can then head down to the basement for karaoke. Everything under one roof.
BLÊR is open on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays from 5:00 PM to 1:45 AM. Minimum age is 18. Reservations can be made at book.blerkaraoke.nl up to three months in advance. Popular nights are often fully booked weeks in advance.
Summer evenings (April through September) — karaoke + rooftop
During the spring and summer months, the rooftop is open to the public on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays starting at 5:00 PM—no reservation required, weather permitting.
7:30 PM — Start on the rooftop (3rd floor)
Start at the top. Take the elevator or stairs to the third floor—you’ll find yourself on the only rooftop terrace open to the public in the center of The Hague. Order a signature cocktail, grab a bar snack, and enjoy the view of the Prinsegracht and the Grote Markt. During the summer months, you’ll arrive right at golden hour: the sun sets behind the skyline around 9:00–10:00 p.m.
9:30 PM — The resident DJ takes the stage
On Fridays and Saturdays, the resident DJ starts playing on the rooftop at 9:30 p.m. It’s not quite karaoke time yet—but it’s when the energy really starts to build. Join in the dance, grab another cocktail, and get warmed up.
10:00 PM — Head down to the basement for BLÊR
Take the stairs or elevator down, then head to the basement. Your booth is waiting for you. Sing your heart out for two hours.
12:00 a.m. — Back up to the rooftop terrace!
Your karaoke session is over. Want to keep going? The rooftop is open until 1:30 a.m. in the summer—enjoy one last cocktail under the stars while the DJ keeps the music going. Or head back to bed. It’s your night.

Yes, and many groups do just that. In the karaoke room itself, you’re only served drinks; food isn’t served in the booth. But you can enjoy a great meal in the same building, depending on the season. During the winter months (October through March), Bar Bley on the ground floor is open to the public—a playful restaurant-bar with sharing dishes and bar bites. During the summer months (April through September), you can head up to the rooftop on the third floor beforehand for bar bites with a view. BLÊR itself is open year-round on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays starting at 5:00 p.m. For combined dinner-karaoke packages for larger groups (year-round, including the rooftop option): groups@bleyenbergdenhaag.nl.

Absolutely. BLÊR is a popular spot for bachelorette and bachelor parties, birthdays, team outings, and Friday afternoon drinks. The largest room, The Yell, accommodates 12 people. For larger groups, you can book multiple rooms side by side. BLÊR is located in the same building as Bar Bley (restaurant-bar, open to the public October through March) and the rooftop (open to the public April through September), allowing you to combine karaoke with a seasonal drink or dinner at the same location. For corporate groups, there is a separate page with team-building packages where all three floors can be combined year-round: bleyenbergdenhaag.nl/bler-karaoke-teambuilding.
-
BLÊR enforces a strict age restriction of 18 and older. This applies to all guests in the rooms and during all hours of operation. You may be asked to show identification upon arrival.
-
BLÊR combines elements of both: it’s a karaoke bar with private rooms instead of an open stage. No onlookers, no waiting your turn in front of an audience—you have your own double-soundproofed room with your own group. It’s cozy, with professional equipment and its own bar service. In terms of atmosphere, it feels like a late-night hotspot.
-
BLÊR is located in the basement of Bleyenberg at Grote Markt 10, right in the heart of The Hague. From The Hague Central Station, it’s just two stops away by tram: take lines 2, 3, 4, or 6 to the Grote Markt stop. Bike parking is available on Boekhorststraat or Prinsegracht. By car: Q-Park Prinsegracht is right across from the front door of Bleyenberg. After your karaoke session, you can continue the fun in the same building: in the summer (April through September), the rooftop on the 3rd floor is open; in the winter (October through March), Bar Bley on the ground floor is open—both until 1:30 a.m.
-
No, we don’t serve food in the karaoke rooms themselves. You can order drinks all evening via the tablet; our staff will bring them to your booth. For food, we’d like to direct you to Bar Bley (ground floor, open during the winter season from October through March) or the rooftop (third floor, open during the summer season from April through September)—both located in the same building.
-
If the room hasn’t been booked by the next group after your time slot, you can stay for an additional fee. If the room has been booked, we’ll be happy to help you out—in the summer, head to the rooftop (3rd floor); in the winter, head to Bar Bley (ground floor). Want to be sure you can sing for 3 or 4 hours? Then book two consecutive time slots.
-
You can book up to three months in advance. Friday and Saturday evenings are the busiest times and are often fully booked weeks in advance, especially during exam periods, bachelor/bachelorette season (May–July), and the holidays. Thursday evenings and late time slots (after 10:00 PM) are generally easier to book on short notice.
-
That depends on the season you’re visiting. During the spring and summer months (April through September), the rooftop on the third floor is open to the public on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays—no reservation required—and you can enjoy karaoke with cocktails and a DJ on the rooftop. During the fall and winter months (October through March), Bar Bley on the ground floor is open to the public on the same days—a playful restaurant-bar featuring sharing dishes, cocktails, and arcade games—and you can combine karaoke with that experience. BLÊR itself is open year-round on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays starting at 5:00 PM. For corporate groups, all three concepts can be combined year-round via groups@bleyenbergdenhaag.nl.
-
During the spring and summer months (early April through September), yes. During those months, the rooftop is open to the public on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays starting at 5:00 PM, weather permitting, with no reservation required. Popular combo: start with cocktails and sunset on the rooftop (sun sets around 9:00–10:00 PM), and on Fridays and Saturdays, catch the resident DJ starting at 9:30 PM, then head downstairs for two hours of karaoke. Or the other way around: sing first, then wrap up the evening upstairs. During the fall and winter months, the rooftop is closed to the public—in that case, combine your visit with Bar Bley on the ground floor. For corporate groups, the rooftop can be rented year-round thanks to the canopy and heaters.
-
Yes. During the winter months (October through March), Bar Bley on the ground floor of Bleyenberg is open to the public on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays from 5:00 PM to 1:30 AM. It’s a fun, laid-back bar serving sharing dishes, bar bites, signature cocktails, and featuring arcade games. The perfect winter itinerary: dinner and drinks at Bar Bley starting at 7:00 PM, karaoke in a BLÊR booth starting at 10:00 PM, and winding down back at Bar Bley. All at the same address at Grote Markt 10, without having to travel in between.
