Hawaii Yacht Club

3rd Space Honolulu is a flexible room behind Harbors Vintage built for live music, DJs, workshops and private events. Hardcore, rock and alternative bands already make sense here, and the format is much closer to a DIY performance room than a restaurant gig. Artists with a strong identity and compact production should see it as a real show opportunity rather than background entertainment.

Anna O'Brien's is long-running Honolulu bar with an upstairs live-music room now branded for Tavana's at Anna's shows, plus open mic and local-band programming.. Musically, Rock, punk, metal, and related styles fit naturally with the programming here. For musicians, the hospitality setting rewards strong vocals, professional presentation, and enough dynamic control to complement food, drinks, and conversation while still making the music feel intentional. Anna O'Brien's is best suited to performers that understand the room, adapt their dynamics to the audience, and approach the date as a specific venue fit rather than a generic booking. Overall, it offers musicians a distinct performance setting where the live show can become a meaningful part of the audience experience. A concise, well-paced set and professional transitions will help the performance feel complete. Strong audience awareness can make the difference between simply playing the room and truly connecting with it. Acts that prepare for the venue’s format and crowd are likely to make the strongest impression.

Eating House 1849 Waikiki sits on the International Market Place Grand Lanai and pairs Hawaiian and island-oriented live music with a busy restaurant atmosphere. Acoustic and culturally rooted performers fit naturally, with group configurations ranging from intimate dining to larger buyouts of roughly 120 standing. Musicians should keep the set warm, accessible and flexible enough for a mixed dining crowd. The venue is 21+.
