As befits a premiere tourist destination, Honolulu teems with nightlife. Extravagant productions are staples of the resort showrooms, while luaus brimming with Island music and dancing rival anything Las Vegas has to offer. While they may be responsible for the most lavish entertainments, the big resort hotels' smaller, more intimate lounges often offer sophisticated nightlife options as well. The Sheraton Waikiki's Hanohano Room features light jazz to complement its beautiful bay and city views. The House Without a Key at the legendary Halekulani Hotel is one of the best places in Honolulu for an early evening cocktail. Sip a drink and savor the Waikiki sunset as hula dancers sway gracefully to the strains of Island music.
What do you do once you've had your fill of poi and roasted pig? For a mix of live rock, funk, reggae, blues, and ska music, try Anna Bannana's. This long-standing favorite has been cranking out live music since 1969. Jazz fans can hear old favorites at the Dragon Upstairs. Comedians will tickle your funny bone at Sharkey’s Comedy Club at Panama Hattie’s.
For a special evening out, put to sea on the Star of Honolulu. This lavish, four-deck cruise ship offers dinner and dancing packages, including live entertainment from cool jazz to hot rock & roll to elaborate theatrical variety shows.
Honolulu boasts a vibrant dance-club scene as well. For up-to-date information on clubs or other musical venues and schedules, consult one of the many free entertainment publications, such as Honolulu Weekly, that are available throughout the city.
