* The Waikiki Outrigger on the Beach Hotel is
located at the diamond head side of Waikiki, very close to the
Moana Surfrider. It is one of the last buildings on the makai (ocean)
side of Kalakaua Avenue. For Directions click
the hotel’s website.
The show will take place on the second floor of the hotel, next
to the check in lobby. Take the escaltor next to Seattles's Best.
Parking in Waikiki is always tricky, but the Honolulu Zoo or
Kalakaua Avenue along Queen’s
beach provides metered parking on the mauka side. The makai (ocean)
side of Kalakau Ave, still has free parking. Please remember
that along Kalakaua Avenue and the Zoo meters need to be fed
on Sunday too (frequent meter checks have been spotted lately).
Waikiki side streets still have free parking on Sundays, if you
find a spot.
