Everyone who wants to attend the Luau should go on Saturday (I can't make it--I gotta work and I have a previous engagement that evening). The Luau is at 6pm.

I, along with anyone who wishes to see the Smokin' Menehunes play (everyone, basically), should go on Sunday. The Menehunes are on at 2:30pm.

Everyone who wants to have an entire tiki-filled beach weekend should go both days!

P.S. Hope to see everyone there on Sunday!!! :)

Must get there early, Saturday to get the one of a kind, thingamawhat, or I will be living in eternal piranha tank forever being eaten to the bones in small little bites.
Must be there Sunday for the Smokin' something or another.
Too much information, circuits overloading, what's that funny smell, Oh it's me. Sorry Dave, I cannot do that.

It's OK folks, I'm married to this guy I still don't know what he's talking about!

Tiki beachfest is great venue to attend . Last year I sold a lot .Sorry that I cant vend and do live carving this year . I'm getting ready for my monthlong show at the LA county fair starting Sept 7th. I'll also be doing live carving there on Sundays (4 shows a day ).

Nothing limited edition, but I will be bringing out some vintage and some Tiki Farm oddities / retired.

Will vending be on Saturday and Sunday or Sunday only?

Looking for overnight accommodations?

Vending will be both days, stop by and say hi...

Well which one is more exciting, since some of us work for a living and can't go both days. By exciting I mean more TC people around to mingle with???????????

Bummer.......I am out of town this weekend. All those who can attend should go, though. This is an event not to be missed. Last year was a blast! Have fun everyone.

Hey, I have to work part of the weekend (Saturday), too! I'm right there with ya!!!

I hope this helps: It sounds to me like a few TCers will be there both days, but I think quite a few (including myself) definitely plan to be there on Sunday cuz that's when the Smokin' Menehunes are playing. I could be completely wrong, but I'm not getting the impression that a whole lot of TCers will be going on Saturday only.

However, if there are any people in particular you want to be sure to hook up with, I would suggest checking with those people individually or asking them to post which day they're going.

P.S. TikiTony--check your PM

For anyone who is going to be in the So Cal area this weekend.............Just a heads up

Also, the set up that was serving You drinks at the Shag wItH a TwIsT play, (void the tiki's) is avail @ 1/2 off for your pleasures.

Does anyone know what time the festivities start Saturday Morning???

The web site says that it is from sun up to sun down. I think The Whale Rider and I will be there on Saturday at around 10:00 or 11:00. Hope to see you all there!!!!
Later,
Spermy

Well, I just got back from the Tiki Beach Festival and I was a little disappointed. Not with the vendors that were there, that was all great. But the event was too small! I hoping there would be many more attending. According to Von Tiki the event was a lot bigger last year.

WooHoo! Two thumbs up to all the vendors that helped make The Tiki Beach Festival Tiki-rrific!!

We had a great time at the TB Fest the other day! And thanks for buying our crap! Can't wait for next year's!

Well, I went on Sunday and heard the Smokin' Menehunes they sounded great. But best of all I did buy myself a fabulous VonTiki original tiki. And it looks great sitting there all graceful by my tiki hut. :)

Bought a Von Tiki myself. Very cool.

I had a great time.The fire dancing and the whole show was very entertaining. The food was better this year.Not as many Kustom Kulture people as there was last year, but in any case, I'll do it again. It was great seeing everyone and meeting new tcrs too.Mahalo.

PICS ? anyone ?

This was our booth on Sunday

So THAT'S where my wife went on sunday...and she didn't even bring me back a mug.
