Karaoke

There is an array of karaoke bars and locales that offer the fun โ€“ and often embarrassing โ€“ activity. Showcase your own talent, or cheer on those brave enough to get on stage. If youโ€™d rather display your talents for only your loved ones, several karaoke clubs offer special private rooms, so you can enjoy the night without the dreaded embarrassment.

Luโ€™aus

These traditional Hawaiian parties include native Hawaiian cuisine like poi, poke, lomi salmon, and more. Entertainment is often traditional Hawaiian music, kanikapila, and hula. Be careful! Some shows may even pull you up on stage for a hula lesson! Many hotels offer shows nightly or weekly, while others are produced by private companies at other locations around the island.
