This is the first year of this event here in Las Vegas. Sept 6-9, 2018 at The Thunderbird Hotel (newly remodeled). It will be small (100-200 people), but will make it just that much better as you will feel closer to your fellow tikiphiles.

The Phenomenauts Thee Swank Bastards Franks and Deans Durango 66 Shieks of Neptune Tiki Bandits The Hypnotiques with Kitty Chow Drew Storey Paul Moton Swing Dance lessons available Thursday with Live Music to dance to after. There will be DJ spinning your favorite music by the pool and in the bar: Senor Amore, Rex Dart, Ralphie the Shoes, Vegas Kyle, Raie Manta (french polynesian music). More to come. We have symposiums for your pleasure. Learn how to make a Tiki Pendant (start to finish) - Two day workshop Friday and Saturday by Tiki Al Learn about Automated Bars - History to How to create one yourself by Mike Barletta Learn Pinup Posing from the Fox and the Vamp Learn Tiki Collecting for Fun and Profit by Jason Smith aka Tiki Pug. There will be a cocktail competition. You be the judge. Huka Pele Poker Chips used for the judging. Take a souvenir home after. If you want to have a room party. This is the year. It will be smaller and more manageable. Just have fun. It does not need to be complicated. Have your room party wear fatigues and be jungle guerrillas, Flower Power theme, Jet Airliner, Old Shack tiki bar, Dark and spooky, so many easy ideas.
