Speaking as a person who attends tiki events and buys stuff at them, I sort of consider them already a trade show for those interested in tikis. I don't think I would make the transition to flying somewhere, and renting a hotel and car, just to go to a daytime trade show per se. Now, toss in an old tiki hotel/restaurant/bar, appropriate bands e.g. The Mai Kai Gents, King Kukulele, or Fishermen, big nighttime parties, possible late night swimming and/or ukelele sing-alongs, lotsa opportunites to pile on my swankiest Hawaiian duds and - Yeah! I'm there looking at your goods.

But wait! That's Hukilau and Desert Oasis! Hmmm... Well, folks with stuff to sell, bring it on and bring it there (again!)!

Saving my Tiki-buying pennies for the next cool event,
