Waikīkī Lights Gala: Solid Gold
Presented by Waikīkī Community Center Wednesday, November 12, 2025
Beyond the golden sunsets and swaying palms of Waikīkī, there’s a vibrant community that relies on care, connection, and support. At the heart of it all is the Waikīkī Community Center — a local nonprofit that’s been serving keiki, kūpuna, and families since 1978.
Each year, the Center hosts its signature Waikīkī Lights Gala — a dazzling night of dinner, dancing, and giving back. This year, we’re going Solid Gold for a sparkling celebration of impact and generosity. Expect live music, gourmet dinner, a silent and virtual auction, and unforgettable moments — all with a golden twist.
💛 What Is the Gala For?
Funds raised at the Solid Gold Gala support programs that uplift our entire community:
Preschool for local keiki – now tuition-free thanks to WCC becoming the first private preschool in Hawai‘i to convert to a public charter
Wellness programs for kūpuna
Food and essential services for those facing hardship
WCC serves not only Waikīkī, but also families across Oʻahu who depend on these vital programs.
A Night to Honor and Celebrate
This year’s gala honors:
Hilton Grand Vacations
Outrigger Hospitality Group
And recognizes:
Senator Sharon Moriwaki for her ongoing dedication to Hawai‘i’s people.
Together, we shine for a brighter tomorrow.
