Rapid City, SD — Hey Rapid City, ready to make the most of your weekend? Downtown is bursting with events, energy, and entertainment—and whether you’re a music lover, karaoke king, comedy fan, or bingo enthusiast, there’s something for everyone.
Thursday night kicks things off with a trio of can’t-miss happenings. First up, 445 Martini Lounge brings the party with its weekly Karaoke Night at 9 PM. Whether you’re a shower singer or a stage veteran, this is your time to shine.
Just a few blocks over, ABY’s hosts their Open Mic Night, also at 9 PM. Expect an eclectic mix of local talent—from acoustic sets and spoken word to unexpected jams. Bring your instrument or just your love for live performance.
If you’re in the mood for laughs, West River Comedy is hosting its Open Mic Night at 7 PM. It’s a great chance to support local comedians—or even take a crack at the mic yourself.
Friday and Saturday, music fans are in for a treat. Blues-rock legend Ken Valdez takes the stage for back-to-back shows at 445. Mentioned with the same icons like ZZ Top, Buddy Guy, and Prince, Valdez delivers high-octane blues with soul, swagger, and masterful guitar chops. These shows are expected to pack the house.
Then on Saturday, April 19th, it’s the event of the weekend: the 4th Annual Stoner Bingo Party at ABY’s. This isn’t your grandma’s bingo—think wild prizes, quirky vibes, and two full rounds of high-energy gameplay. With four Grand Prizes and thousands of dollars in giveaways, it’s the kind of night you’ll be talking about all year.
