About this Experience

What you'll do:

You'll spend four hours inside one of the DC area's most interactive live venues, where two piano players take requests from the room and turn the whole crowd — your group included — into the show.

  • Submit song requests – Write down any song you want performed live and watch the musicians deliver it, from 80s rock to current pop, with crowd-powered energy behind every note.

  • Sing along to live music – The room sings together, and your group sets the tone; the louder you are, the wilder the night gets.

  • Catch the comedy and banter – The performers trade rapid-fire jokes and work the crowd between songs, keeping the energy sharp and the laughs coming throughout the night.

  • Celebrate your occasion on stage – Whether it's a birthday shoutout, a bachelorette moment, or a corporate team win, the performers incorporate your group's event into the show.

  • Settle into a VIP table – Your group gets a dedicated table inside the venue, giving you a base to order drinks, regroup between songs, and enjoy the show without jostling for space.

The result is somewhere between a concert, a comedy show, and a house party — built around whatever your group brings to the room. At Bobby McKey's dueling piano bar in National Harbor, no two nights run the same way.

Why we love it for your party:

  • All-request live setlist – The musicians play what the room wants, so your group's taste shapes the whole night — not a predetermined playlist.

  • Built-in crowd interaction – The performers actively pull the audience into the show, which means your group is entertained even when you're not singing.

  • Occasions built into the show – Birthdays, bachelorette parties, and corporate events get real recognition on stage, not just a generic mention.

  • National Harbor location – The venue sits in the middle of one of the DC area's most walkable dining and entertainment districts, so pre- and post-show plans are easy.

  • Flexible for large groups – VIP table packages and drink options scale to fit your headcount, making logistics straightforward for group organizers.

Groups ranging from bachelorette parties to corporate events return to Bobby McKey's because the show changes completely based on who's in the room.
