NEW! We now have a Wine and Beer Room to enjoy before and after the concert.

Ticket holders will be able to purchase Volcano Red Ale and Mauna Kea Pale Ale from Mehana Brewing Company as well as wine before each performance.

And DANCERS TAKE NOTE: An area has been set aside for dancing, so you don’t have to stay in your seat when the band starts to swing and you’re moved to your feet.

The last day to purchase tickets online, at Volcano Art Center Gallery, or at Basically Books is Friday, July 24. After that, tickets will be sold at the door if they are not sold out.
