The parade begins with warm-up and step-off from Fort DeRussy Park and ends at Queen Kapiolani Park. The torch-lit parade route travels approximately 1.5 miles along Waikiki’s main thoroughfare, Kalakaua Avenue, with festive scenery of Waikiki Beach as your backdrop. On your left, tall, twinkling hotels and restaurants are teeming with flowers, torches and spectators; to your right grand palms & white sand beach unfold to the open ocean. You won’t find a warmer welcome in any other destination!
