Honolulu Night Market

Wow, what an awesome idea! Who ever decided that there needed to be an outdoor street festival with food, art, music and culture, deserves a medal, kiss or beer, STAT!

I definitely want to go back to this place to feel it out a little more... I've heard a lot about it! I went the night that it was themed Xtreme but didn't come in time to see the performances.  

Unfortunately, I came thirsty for some good beer but the beer garden was only serving domestic brews that night.  I'm not really a Coors or Bud light person!  Hopefully next time I go I will be able to sample some awesome local brews!

I had already eaten dinner by the time I got to Kaka'ako but I still indulged in some Pop pop donuts- YUM!  There were also tons of great food options there.... I won't make the mistake of eating before I go again!

There were a lot of really interesting vending options besides food.  I browsed jewelry, local clothing companies and tons of art! The yelp booth was there with life-size jenga blocks and plenny schwag... always a good time!

This is just another event that make Kaka'ako such a cool new neighborhood to explore!  I hope to go back to take full advantage of the night festival!

LOVE THIS EVENT. Would recommend for you, your kids, your husband, your wife, your grandma, whoever! It's fun for the whole family. Imagine a place with shopping, food, fashion, entertainment, and art all in the same place....that is exactly what the Honolulu Night Market. They close off the street so that people can walk around and enjoy all of the delicious food vendors! Great choices and varieties. There is the Pinch of Salt, I think it's called, which is basically a warehouse full of stores selling apparel.

They always keep it fresh at these events and is the place to be and be seen. Although, I always put about 0% of effort into how I look, so I hope I don't see anyone I know.

Anyway, the most recent Honolulu Night Market featured the Red Bull X-Fighters, a professional motocross stunt team. Very cool! It's just a very pretty place to be, if you know what I mean. I usually come early and leave early to avoid the mad rush of people that come around 7:30.

I'm so happy monthly events like Honolulu Night Market exist, it's a fun experience for your whole family. Honolulu Night Market has the perfect combination of elements to please anyone: a variety of local food vendors, mixture of live art + an opportunity to check out the latest art exhibit at R&D, fashion shows featuring local designers, music from the talented Lightsleepers crew & live performances by artists, shopping + there's ALWAYS the main attraction. This month's main attraction for Honolulu Night Market was the Red Bull X-Fighters Jam!

If you don't follow me on social media, then you probably don't know how much I LOVE Red Bull (it's my beverage of choice when I'm out & about). When I found out that Red Bull X-Fighters would perform high-flying motorcross demonstrations, I was telling everyone & their dog about it this event.

I wish Instagram video was introduced before this event happened, because the motorcross demonstrations were awesome & I really wanted to share this experience with my nephew. Even though, I'm not a motorcross enthusiast, I was blown away by their freestyle motorcross performance; I'll admit there were moments I felt nervous for Keith Sayers, Red Bull Athlete Wes Agee & 3-time X-Games Gold Medalist Ronnie Renner but it was reassuring to know that safety is their #1 priority.

By far & away, this past month was the best Honolulu Night Market to date because of: 1) They collaborated with Red Bull, 2) Every food vendor had $3 Red Bulls on special & 3) The team behind Honolulu Night Market continuously strive to make each event better than the last, I always doubt it's possible & then they surprise me.

If you missed this past Honolulu Night Market, don't worry this monthly event takes place every third Saturday of the month. Stalk Honolulu Night Market on your social networks to stay up-to-date with the latest news about information on the upcoming entertainment & vendors.
