The Floating Luau has arrived just in time for Tiki Season. After four years at anchor in Echo Park, Ca. Tiki Taix, the longest running show in Tiki is setting sail for exotic Ports O’ Call. Our Floating Luau will be making stops all over Southern California. Our first Port is at the exotic Purple Orchid in El Segundo, Ca.

King Kukulele and the Friki Tikis return to the Purple Orchid for the debut of the Floating Luau! Malahini Marc and Riki Kon Tiki play original Hapa Haole tunes with the King to celebrate our Luau as it begins it’s journey floating from island to island. The standards will be played too as well as lots of surprises to keep everyone on their toes.

PLUS

Hot off the trail of the greatest Tiki Bars in the world, our traveling reporters Dave and Rebecca return to their native land The Purple Orchid with news from abroad, pictures, stories, and the inside scoop on the greatest Tiki bars of Europe. The jet lag won’t even be worn off as you get the latest news on what’s happening in the world of Euro Tiki!

ALSO

The Polynesian Paradise Dancers complete our crew as we set sail for the open seas and bring our luau to the islands of the World of Tiki! The Polynesian Paradise Dancers have traveled the world and performed on three continents throughout Asia, Eastern Europe and America. No Floating Luau would be complete without a touch of Polynesian Paradise.

AND

Iuka Grogg of the Mai Kai Gents will join us on our journey! Who better to help kick off the Floating Luau then the man who helped inaugurate Tiki Taix in 2004. He has performed with his ukulele at the Tiki Oasis and at the very first Hukilau! Iuka Grogg was a frequent contributor to Tiki Taix and we hope he'll be floating along with the Luau as often as possible.

Come on down and grab a Mai Tai and a tune. See some hula on a Saturday night at the debut of The Floating Luau at the lovely Purple Orchid Exotic Tiki Lounge.
