The Stars of Keyboard Karaoke

If you’re already thinking about what to do late next month, there’s a new event coming to Ironworks Studios that sounds like a great way to spend a Thursday night. On February 26, 2026, Ironworks will host The Stars of Keyboard Karaoke, marking the first time Gus and Glen's unique show is appearing at the venue. This isn't just standard karaoke; it’s built around live keyboard accompaniment, courtesy of the incredible Glen Richardson, promising a night of "fun vibes and epic tunes." The organizers aim to create "super concentrated nights of passion and surprise" with their community of singers, and the whole thing is set up in the intimate Cabaret area, right next to the bar.

The experience itself is designed to be highly interactive, whether you’re ready to belt out a tune or prefer to stay seated. If you do decide to grab the mic, you have a substantial list of 250 songs to choose from. For those who might be a little shy—or just "Not a singer? No problem"—they offer song bingo cards, ensuring everyone can be part of the fun and memorable moments. To really amplify the atmosphere, Gus and Glen actively encourage attendees to get creative with their outfits, noting that "Dressing up outrageously is encouraged."

If this sounds like your kind of evening, the event runs for two and a half hours, starting at 8:00 p.m. (20:00) and finishing up at 10:30 p.m. (22:30) GMT. Ironworks Studios is located at 30 Cheapside, making it easily accessible for a mid-week outing. Regarding entry, tickets are required, with general admission starting from 16 GBP, although the standard price is often listed around £15.84. You can check availability and reserve your spot online, but just a heads up: the ticket policy states that refunds are not permitted. It looks like a lively, high-energy option for a late February night in Brighton.
