Since 1998, the Waikiki Holiday Parade commemorates Pearl Harbor Survivors and the anniversary of the attacks. Dozens of bands are
excitedly anticipating 2011 for the 70th Anniversary of the Pearl Habor attacks.
Thousands of spectators, residents and visitors gather on the Friday after Thanksgiving to watch this non-competitive parade, which hosts local bands, marching bands from the mainland, Pearl Harbor Survivors, service bands, military units, local officials, dignitaries and entertainers. The parade begins at Fort DeRussy and ends at Kapiolani Park. The scenic parade route travels approximately 1.5 miles through Waikiki along the oceanfront of torch-lit Kalakaua Avenue. You won't find a warmer welcome in any other destination. 
Band directors from all over the United States return each year,
thrilled by their experiences during this amazing week with their
students.
