Waiākea Presents: The Drop In

The Drop In is a one-night celebration of music, art, food, and culture featuring some of Hawaiʻi's most influential creatives and longtime members of the Waiākea ʻohana. Set against the backdrop of the Bishop Museum, the evening invites guests to discover new artists, support local businesses, connect with friends, and experience the people and partnerships that continue to shape our islands.

Headlining the night is Waiākea ambassador Irie Love, whose powerful voice and message of aloha, resilience, and authenticity have earned her a devoted following here in Hawaiʻi and around the world.. A celebrated performer and cultural storyteller, Irie brings the kind of presence that turns a show into an experience.

She'll be joined on stage by fellow Waiākea ambassadors Jordan T and Dillon Pakele, island music artists whose music reflects the creativity, connection, and island spirit that have become synonymous with the brand.

The evening will also feature an exclusive release from renowned Hawaiʻi artist Aaron Kai. With shared Big Island roots, Aaron is a long-time Waiākea ambassador and brand partner known for transforming the colors and energy of the islands into bold visual works. His work has been featured by the Los Angeles Rams, Adidas, and at The Drop In, he will debut a limited-edition merch capsule and featured art available only at the event.

Throughout the night, CNRBOY will keep the vibe spinning while emcee Krystiles hosts the evening. 

From live performances and exclusive releases to local food, drinks, and shopping, The Drop In is an opportunity to experience the people, brands, and stories that inspire us. Come through, stay awhile, and be part of the story
