I am so pleased to officially announce Hukilau 2006! I am also so proud to welcome my co-Producer this year Mr. Casey Jones!!! He has been so dedicated to the event for 3 solid years that he of course is an obvious choice!
This year’s Hukilau is very special — we are celebrating both the Hukilau’s fifth year, and also 50 amazing years of the legendary Mai-Kai in Ft. Lauderdale! The party will span four days, from Thursday, October 5 through Sunday, October 8, 2006.
Festivities include:
*Special musical performance by Billy Mure & APE, together on one stage
*Italy’s I Belli di Waikiki & their alter ego Los Terribles de Tijuana
*Special presentations by Tiki luminaries such as The Book of Tiki author Sven Kirsten and Grog Log author Jeff “Beachbum” Berry
*A Tiki Bazaar full of fantastic vendors
*A special exhibit showcasing never-before-seen photos and memorabilia from the Mai-Kai’s archives
*Of course, a magical evening spent at the Mai-Kai itself
*.......and so much more, it’ll make your head spin!
*And for the big surprise, stay for Sunday - you won't want to miss it (TBA)!!
*****Plus get ready for the Official Hukilau 2006 Tiki mug by Munktiki!!!!
To get all the details about this exciting event check out the website for yourself at...
The Hukilau
Vendors should sign up very very soon as we have extremely limited space this year in order to offer the best merchandise to all of our guests!
We can’t wait to see you this October in Ft. Lauderdale!
And my overwhelming thanks to Humuhumu - you are one in a million!!!!

I am so there!! I'm not sure if I completely understand how the tickets work. Will the Aloha Pass get you everywhere, Thurs-Sat, except the seminars, or is the Mai Kai show a different ticket altogether?
I can't wait!

I hope Kiliki won't mind my answering on her behalf... she had a long day today!
You're exactly right on the Aloha Pass -- it's a weekend pass, and the seminar tickets are purchased separately. You can buy a weekend pass *with* seminar tickets as the Big Kahuna pass.
No ticket is required for the Mai Kai, you just have to call the Mai Kai and make dinner reservations for that night.
Hope that helps!

<<The website doesn't work on Safari>>
It worked for me and I use Safari exclusively.
Tiger vs. Panther maybe?

Excellent! I'm booking our stuff. One item to note: I tried to purchase four tickets, but the pull-down only permits two to be purchased. Will I need to create two separate login ids to handle booking four people?

Mobiletikibar - contact Casey Jones, he's my co-Producer and can assist you with purchases of 2 or more tickets. His email address is located on the Hukilau website - see you in October!

Thanks for asking about Robert Drasnin!
The Hukliau 2005s presentation of Robert Drasnin was a ONCE IN A LIFETIME EVENT. It was highly, highly unusual for Mr. Drasnin to perform at all. Mr. Drasnin's performance is an example of why The Hukilau is so special and why The Hukilau is an annual must-do. The line-up changes from year-to-year and we consistently offer "first and only" or "once in a lifetime" entertainment and/or attractions.
Mahalo!

This year the "once and only" looks to be APE with Billy Mure. Maybe next year it could be Fisherman with another icon from the past!
