What Our Clients Say

MISS HAWAII USA PAGEANT - ROYAL HAWAIIAN THEATER

The Royal Hawaiian Theater is a great venue. They've been amazing to work with. Of course the stage is gorgeous! I am so grateful for the Royal Hawaiian Theater team; I am very pleased with the turnout of the Miss Hawaii USA show.

~Alicia Michioka | Executive Director | New Media Productions LLC

PACIFIC BASIN MUSIC FESTIVAL - LUAU & SHOW BUYOUT

Thank you so much for hosting us for another incredibly successful event. The food and your staff were amazing as always, and the kids very much enjoyed the show!

~Ashira Macy | Production Manager | World Projects

UKULELE FESTIVAL OF HAWAI'I GALA CONCERT - WHOLE PLACE BUYOUT

It was our first time using Royal Hawaiian Theater for our annual Gala Concert and we were very impressed with the facility! Where else can you get an all inclusive venue that has sound, lighting and even a screen for your use? Not to mention a very tasty buffet that is very affordable! If you were to use any other venue and hire individual vendors for your needs, it would have cost us a fortune. The staff was knowledgeable and accommodated our requests which also impressed our sponsors. We are already looking forward to coming back next year for our Gala concert. Rock-A-Hula is a hidden gem in Waikiki that holds extreme value! Highly recommended.

~ Isaac Peters | Owner | Ukulele Lab

LIVE CONCERT - ROYAL HAWAIIAN THEATER

I just wanted to thank you again for the kind hospitality you and the rest of the Rock-A-Hula staff extended to my family and I. It’s always a joy working with great people. Thank you again, I really could not have done it without your help. Also, thank you again for helping us decide the lighting. The confidence and poise you displayed are traits I aspire to have going forward.
