Security was posted within the audience seated throughout the concert. The ac was strong. An older crowd in the audience. The row in front of us had their heads bobbing to the music. The performer had local guests sing a duet with him, had BYU choir on stage, the Honolulu symphony Orchestra plus his own band performing. Glad there were two large screens to see Josh Groban sing. Helps when large and tall people sit in front of you at the last possible moment. Felt almost like a gospel vibe to me but could be cuz I was not familiar with the majority of his songs.

Ok... so depending on what you're going here for and why. Not everyone likes to be indoors cause it…read morecan get hot and the worst part of this place is the bathrooms. It's so off and confusing to where it's at. But, it is a decent place to have most events! If it's for a concert... Like we just went to for UB40? UH DUH!!! TOTALLY % YES!!! Why? Cause you'll be able to enjoy the show and SEE IT from the seats your in rather than watch los rod it ON A JUMBO SCREEN. Plus too, there are different choices of seating. Most people love the UPPER LEVELS. Yet, the stairs are a killer! AND... NO BARS so everything is balance and grace. But if your like me who USE TO LOVE IT, but don't anymore cause you worry your legs will give... well, there's the ground floor that has bleachers of seats. The seats are so much better NOW than they were before. So, highly recommend the ground floor for those who refuses to walk up stairs. Then there's the lodges. K those are GREAT, yet, my fear is falling OVER the ledge. And the stairs you MIST WALM UP to get there too! Lol! It's been a while since I've sat in this arena for anything. I think the last time was for a concert back in 2013! LADIES OF THE 80's with the hubby. Hehehe there were so much hubbies there that night. It was unbelievable! Anywho... great place to be at for events, concerts and whatnot. But terrible place to use heels and tight clothes (if you know what I mean) Oh! Prices varies with type of events and I truly honestly believe it's absolutely RIDICULOUS sometimes. However, I get it, bills must be paid and people must be bought to make the event go smoothly! Okie dokes artichokes! Have a good one and mahalo for reading... CIAO!

Parking wasn't too bad and we parked at the very top. I have never been to this arena. It's a good size! Lots of concessions but we planned to go eat after. Of course, we were in the nosebleed sections but it was a great view and we could see all the action. Gotta hand it to the community! The families, friends, fellow students, alumni all come out to support the men's volleyball team. We had a lot of fun learning when to "chee hoo!" When to yell "ROOF!" And just scream for UH. I'm glad I got to experience it! Now, getting out of the parking structure did take us a while, but it was all good! GO BOWS!!!!

Until earlier this year, I had only been to Les Murakami Stadium to attend a high school…read moregraduation. We went to a Warriors baseball game (vs UC Davis) in the Spring, and it was great! Parking is easy in the UH lot--pricey, and a bit of a walk to the stadium, but there's plenty of spaces, and since we went early, we didn't have to wait in line of cars to park. We were also able to find a shady place outside the stadium to wait until the doors opened. Hopefully I'm not the only one who attends baseball games almost as much for the food as for the game. The options at the stadium were impressive! For me, it's not a baseball game without a hot dog, so of course that was what I ate, but there were so many types of dogs & toppings available, fancy lemonade drinks, and other things. It was a foodie event! Thanks to Rani R for selecting seats that wouldn't subject us to the setting sun, we were comfortable for the entire late-afternoon game. I'm so glad to have experienced another UH sporting event that I thoroughly enjoyed. We are going to have to do that again next season! Heads up, like other sporting events, the stadium requires that you carry your belongings in a clear bag, and sites specific measurements for them. We were lucky to have some on hand. I'm not sure if it was the norm, but despite the requirement, I did not see anyone enforcing the rule, nor checking bags.

Food- 5 stars Service- 3 stars…read moreAmbiance - 5 stars I attended a UH baseball game the other day and had a great time!! It's a viiibe once you get into the stadium because you are greeted with all UH baseball fans dripped with some cool UH swag. The field has gotten a major facelift since the last time I attended a game ! The baseball field is 100 percent turf and designed to reflect the school's colors. There are many vendors to choose from when you are on the second floor concourse. I ordered summer rolls and Chicken from Olay's Thai and was completely satisfied! The service was okay. I felt like there were no ushers available in our section to help direct us to our seats. We also wanted to order Miller lite beer at first, but something was apparently wrong with the keg connected to their line at the time. Will def be back to get some Pogmosa and try a hotdog!

First time and here and what a perfect game to experience the Hawai'i Bowl. What an exciting game…read moreHawaii won with a few minutes left on the clock unbelievable. Final score 35-31 This stadium is much smaller than our iconic Aloha Stadium which is being demolished as we speak . Although I've notice you can be up close to the players when they run out of their locker rooms compared to Aloha Stadium. Also the TC Ching field has a lot of food trucks to choose from it's basically wrapped around the entire stadium. I've seen of course beer vendors hot dogs , Burgers, garlic fries , nachos, Thai food, chicken wings, popcorn , steak plates and more . The only thing that's shy of earning 5 Stars rating is they only have Porta potties as restrooms and bleachers type of seating. Sitting for a long time during a football game can really hurt your behind. Plus you do not have a back support so I was getting a back ache near the end of. That's being said it was a great experience for my first time . A solid 4 stars support local

Kamalehua - The Sheltering Tree unfolded like a living memory, each note carrying emotion, each lyric rooted in something deeper than words. Inside the Blaisdell Concert Hall, I felt both present and carried-- drawn into a world shaped by voice, culture, and care. And yet, there was another kind of feeling-- a definite chill that settled in, unexpected, lingering in the balcony air where I sat. It pulled me slowly out of the moment, made distance where there had been connection. So I left at intermission-- not because the performance lacked beauty, but because my body could not stay where my heart wanted to be. Still, I carry what I witnessed: fragments of song, echoes of meaning, and the reminder that even a brief encounter with art can leave something lasting behind. NOTE: BUT, my personal experience was unfortunately cut short. I was seated in the balcony (Row H, the front row), and the AC was blowing cold!!! The temperature there was extremely cold--uncomfortable. I wasn't prepared for it, which made it difficult to stay focused and fully enjoy the performance. I ended up leaving during intermission, which was disappointing given how much I was enjoying the opera itself.

Went to the Blaisdell tonight for the Tumua Chee Hoo stand up comedy show. I will say that we were…read morea bit worried about parking, but the parking entry way was extremely organized and quick. Not a super long wait at all. I do wish the parking stalls were a little wider. I get that we're in Hawaii and space is limited but geez man it's like getting packed like sardines in that parking structure. Anyway security checkpoint and main entrance was quick and thorough. Just showed the ticket and we were on our way. Food options inside weren't bad. Idk if the burger was good or if I was starving but it is what it is. The Pancit was good, but that banana lumpia that the lady put on top threw everything off lol. It wasn't even sweet. Had a few blue waves and whatever beer the wife got the second round. Pretty sure it was a green bottle. Either which was we sat in lodge 3 row A.... Definitely good seat. Tumua's show was pretty good also wasn't sure what to expect because I wasn't a huge fan. But he's grown on me a bit.

My husband and I went to the Mayjah Rayjah 2013 Concert last night. We had a great time. Even…read morethough we are on the 'mature side' and didnt know any of the artists. I wanted to do something totally different for our 28th Wedding Anniversary. We sat on the over 21 side (the alcoholics side) as they were affectionately known throughout the night . We chose this side only because it had a better angle to the stage. We got there really early but didnt need to really. We were first in line at the express entrance because we bought a Groupon for the concert.. There is really no need to arrive early and line up for hours we discovered unless you really really want to sit right down the front on the cement step near the stage. There is more than ample room to put your blanket down and relax and watch the show and the stage can be seen from anywhere. We sat on the first path half way up the hill just near the sound desk and it was perfect. By the end of the night though we had a lot of people standing on the path behind us but that didnt happen until about 11.30pm. I am a watcher and I watched the ample ample amount of security guards, no one seemed to be misbehaving even on the 'alcoholics side' and everyone was having a great time dancing and singing. You cannot repeat CANNOT take in anything other than a blanket. I bought 2 stadium seat thingys with the padded seat and back attached from Walmart for $18, they were well worth it as we sat on the grass for 7 hours and hardly got a 'numb bum'...... Each bag is checked thoroughly, every zipper was open and searched. Large backpacks are not allowed in and what was allowed in were completely searched as well. The drinks were overpriced, water, sodas were $3 each but the food was reasonable. 2 Hawaiian plates, rice with salad and chicken or chili franks were $8 each so not too bad. We didnt have any alcohol so not sure of the price, but previous yelpers say it was expensive. They were selling the large cans of Bud Light and looks like mixed drinks as well. Overall it was a fantastic night. If you dont want the noisy revelers sit on the under 21 family side but if you want an alcoholic drink you cant go back over till its all gone!

Event space in Halawa, Honolulu, Hawaii…read more.. The lower parking lot of the Aloha Stadium is not just a place to park your car... In the past, this parking lot was transformed into a magical drive-through holiday light display around Christmas time. It was called "Show Aloha Land". Profits went to local charities! As the years went by, the light show grew into a spectacular event and added things like a zip line and other attractions! In other years, this parking lot was the home of the State Farm Fair. The asphalt was a bit warm for the livestock, so the annual fair was moved to Kualoa Ranch, then to Whitmore Village. This parking lot was also the home of the 50th State Fair. There were many food vendors, rides, and games for children of all ages! Sadly, the 50th State Fair didn't happen in 2025 because Aloha Stadium is scheduled to be demolished in August of 2025. We have been using this parking lot when we go shopping at the Aloha Stadium Swap Meets. Currently, this swap meet is still happening Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Hurry up and go before August!

Ward Field is a multi-purpose sports and gathering area to the right of the Nimitz entry gate. The…read morefield is used year-round for softball, baseball, soccer, football, and other athletic activities. The field is quite large, so there may be more than one game playing at a time, depending on the time of year and the sport. There are bleachers, benches, and dugouts in different sections to accommodate both the players and the spectators. When JBPHH needs a large space for an event, often they will erect tents at Ward Field. This is a frequent gathering area for the Fourth of July and other holidays. There is plenty of parking right next to the field, but additional parking can be found at the buildings surrounding Ward Field when it gets to be crowded. Most of the area here is in good repair, but because this field gets used frequently, the ground can become muddy and lumpy if there's a big crowd during a rain shower. If it looks like rain, military or cowboy boots will help to keep your feet clean and dry. Security and staffing will depend on each event, but the annex building is staffed during regular business hours.

The short rib was decent (wouldnt say it was good, but it was edible). The favorite part of this dish was the white rice which was soft. I like the venue but unfortunately I wouldnt go back since its $20 minimum per person for purchasing food/drinks.
