This view will take your breath away! It will be like you are seeing fireworks for the first time. Grab your sweetheart and cuddle under a blanket to make this “THE MEMORY” of your Hawaiian Vacation!

Ala Moana Beach Park also has a great view of the fireworks from anywhere on the beach. Another option is to find a restaurant that is on the second or third floor at Ala Moana Shopping Center to get a view of the sparkling lights!

Every Friday night the sky lights up with a stunning fireworks display off Waikiki Beach at 7:45 pm. Find the perfect spot the view the fireworks on the beach or at Tropics Bar & Grill or Hau Tree Cantina. If you are staying in an Ocean Front room in Rainbow Tower or The Ali’i you can also watch the show from your balcony.
