Moana Surfrider, A Westin Resort and Spa, celebrates its 115 anniversary this year, and there are several ways you can join in on the celebration too!
Also that same evening at 6:30 pm, slack key virtuoso Makana presents a
modern-day tribute to Moana’s musical past with a “Hawaii Calls” concert. The original “Hawaii Calls”
was a long-running radio show that introduced Hawaiian music to the world. While entertainers played
on the very same Banyan Courtyard stage, show emcee Webley Edwards’ voice could be heard across
the globe, “From the Banyan Court of the Moana Hotel overlooking beautiful Waikiki Beach, it’s Hawaii
Calls!” Makana is widely regarded as one of the masters of slack key guitar in Hawaii, having been
featured on three Grammy-nominated albums including the soundtrack for the Academy Award-winning
film, “The Descendants.” Renowned performers Nina Keali‘iwahamana, Palani Vaughn, Pomaika‘i Lyman
and Taimane Gardner are also expected to join Makana on stage that evening. The cost of this event is $115 per person (inclusive) and includes a pre-concert reception featuring some of the beachhouse’s
finest offerings, two drinks and hosted parking. A portion of the proceeds from this event will benefit
the Bishop Museum, Historic Hawaii Foundation and the Waikiki Aquarium. Click here for tickets.
And right now there is an awesome kama`aina special for a stay at the Moana - but time is limited! See the details below, or click here to view the flyer.
Happy Birthday to the Moana!
