Space is limited — secure your spot now. FREE drinks for the first 100 attendees (first come first served!)
We're curating a powerhouse lineup of DJs:
CALDEE (@caldee) : flying in all the way from LA, CALDEE is bringing an electifying set that dives deep into her signature sound that blends electronic, R&B, hip-hop, and global dance music. Note: CALDEE will return as a featured speaker the following day at the "Worldbuilding in Hawaiʻi" event.
The multi-disciplinary Yaba (@yaba.juice) seamlessly blends underground sounds in vibrant, genre-fluid sets that lock crowds to the dance floor. A masterful selector who commands the decks with excellent charisma, Yaba has established himself as a dynamic player in Honolulu's music community.
More to be announced!
