It is near impossible to gauge this way.
Figure out how many you need to buy tickets and stay at your hotel to make it work and that will give you a better idea of "is it a good idea."
In the end, you can't be sure until you put it together and start selling tickets. Then, once you have it done one year, you can A) know if it was really a success and B) plan the next year based on the number of actual attendees plus 10-20%
First time is always hard to judge. But the second and third time to do the same event at the same place just gets easier and easier in terms of budgeting, etc.
I agree . However I'm not really asking about the logistical/financial end of things. I own a bar and so am used to thinking about putting on events and so forth.
I wanted to see what interest (if any) there is outside of our little circle here in NYC.
Are there bands on the east coast that would play?
Are there vendors?
Anyone want to guest bartend?
Dancers so on and so forth.
Any events that would make a good addition. (best concoction contests, drink tastings, rum tastings etc.)
I will probably do this regardless of the feedback on TC, I just wanted to see the level of enthusiasm and as one poster has stated I've seen it
I opened this thread to get input from TIKI fans. I've seen posts like "I wish they did this at Oasis" and "Why didn't they do this at the Hukilau?"
This way people get to weigh in beforehand and make the event as good as it can be
