How To Queue Songs on Discord

So, how can you create a queue of songs on Discord? If you have a playlist, playing the playlist instead of adding one song at a time makes sense.

This write-up covers all details about adding a queue of songs on Discord. We will use the FredBoat as an example for adding songs on Discord when using a music bot. Also, we will mention how to play a Spotify playlist when playing music on Discord without a bot. Let’s get started!

Can You Queue Songs on Discord?

There is no direct way to queue songs on Discord. There are two options for playing music on Discord, using a bot or without a bot. Therefore, your only option for queueing songs on Discord is to create a playlist and then use either option to play the music on Discord.

When you play the queue on Discord, you can use various commands to control the music if using a music bot.

How To Queue Songs on Discord Using a Music Bot

There are multiple music bots that you can connect to your Discord account to play music. FredBoat is the most popular Discord music bot, and we will use it to explain how to queue songs on Discord.

The first thing to do is to connect your Discord server to the music bot. Once connected, we can then proceed to play our queued music. Also, ensure you’ve created a music playlist. You can create a FredBoat queue playlist on its website.

2. Visit FredBoat’s website and click the Invite to Server option.
