What we own and operate
Each of these is run by the same team — from live event brands that fill rooms every week, to the platforms and tooling that keep them running.
Heat Entertainment Group
Live entertainment across the Tri-Cities — weekly karaoke, trivia, music bingo and bar bingo, plus wedding DJs and private event entertainment.
Heat Social
Websites and social media automation. Builds the site, then automates the Instagram and Facebook posting so products, calendars and services post themselves.
Heat Karaoke
The Heat Karaoke Championships — a multi-night competition series in the Tri-Cities. Showtunes, Pop, Rock & Metal and Country, with cash prizes. 21+.
Heat Trivia
A trivia hosting platform for bars and restaurants — two fresh game packs a week, live scoring, a TV display and printable answer sheets.
Find the Fun
An independent events guide for the Tri-Cities — trivia nights, karaoke, comedy, DJ events and everything else worth leaving the house for.
Hng.is
The infrastructure layer. Multi-brand social posting and scheduling for Instagram, Facebook and TikTok, plus branded short links for every property.
Websites built by Heat Social
Local businesses whose sites we designed, built and keep running — each one built to be found, and to stay current without a fight.
Dax's Bar and Grill
Burgers, pull tabs and cold beer on Lee Blvd, with a calendar that keeps wing nights, karaoke and music bingo straight.

A candy shop experience in Richland — international candies, pop-culture gifts and a storefront worth the drive.
