The 10 Best Nightlife in Waikiki, Hawaii (HI)
The mere mention of Hawaii is enough to prompt visions of grass skirts and colorful cocktails with tiny umbrellas. While you will find some kitsch in Honolulu, you’ll also find art museums, bike paths, and some of the most beautiful scenery in the world. Popular Waikiki Beach has soft sands and great surf. For majestic Oahu views scramble to the top of Diamond Head – a 350-acre volcanic crater. Historic structures like Iolani Palace and Ali'iolani Hale are worth a visit on a non-beach day.

Bo Irvine provides a true Hawaiian comedy experience along with a tribute to military families. We have attended his comedy show everytime we are lucky to travel to Honolulu and the Hale Koa Hotel. His show provides a fun experience at the Warrior's Lounge and is not to be missed. There's nothing like laughing out loud, eating great pupus and drinking a Mai Tai to enhance your vacation!

This bar fronts onto the beach, we went through the lobby to get there, so I'm not sure if you can enter off the beach. I think Royal Hawaiian and the Moana are each the Queens of Waikiki. Royal Hawaiian has lost its lovely gardens but the hotel is still magical. Great service for our visit, there was a Luau going on at beachside, so the music was lovely as well.

I loved my night out here! I'm told this is a very well known local spot, and it absolutely shows. There were plenty of singers ready and willing to belt out a range of songs from country to ballads. When I first walked in, one of the bartenders was doing an excellent job of multitasking between pouring drinks and singing a song. The mic was never silent for long. My group ordered some of their buffalo wings, which were quite tasty. My Old Fashioned was well made and served with a single globe of ice. The Pussy Grabs Back beer was crisp, which I enjoyed. Whether you're a singer or simply an admirer, Wang Chung's is deserving of at least one of your evenings in Waikiki.

My Mom and I attended the 9 pm Willie K show @ The Blue Note Hawaii on Tuesday December 3, 2019. My Mom was celebrating her 89th birthday and is in a wheelchair. The employees were very accommodating once entering the club and helping her in/out of her wheelchair to the booth we wanted to sit in for the show. We always plan our vacation around when Willie K is performing @ The Blue Note in December and have to say, this is one of the best nightclubs to go to see a show at. Not only do they have excellent entertainment, but the employees are super friendly, accommodating (especially to handicap individuals), but the drinks and food they serve are fantastic as well. We look forward to going back in December 2020 to see Willie K again. Would like to give a shout out to Maco Olivari for his kindness and help to us for this show. I highly recommend anyone and everyone when it town to go to see a show at this nightclub, you won't be disappointed.
