Cat Chat: Nonstop Kakaako

By Catherine Toth Fox • October 18, 2011 • Musings, The Daily Dish

There aren’t many events in Honolulu that I actually mark in my calendar.

Nonstop Kakaako on Saturday is one of them.

And it’s not just because, as part of the Nonstop Honolulu team, I have to be there.

This is one of those uber-cool pop-up events in Kakaako that blends food, retail and entertainment in a block party that will have social media swarming.

Here’s the deal: Starting at 4 p.m. Saturday, Auahi Street — between Coral and Keawe streets — will be closed for this special block party/pop-up experience. There will be about 40 food booths, two stages with live entertainment, a tent with chic boutique vendors, a cigar bar, a beer garden, basketball hoops, a rock-climbing wall, virtual stand-up paddling, even the University of Hawaii football game will be broadcast live.

Seriously, what more could you want?

So we had Erin Kinney, integrated strategies manager from Kamehameha Schools, a partner in this event, to talk about what you can look forward to on Saturday — and how this will be a peek into the plans for a new Kakaako neighborhood in the near future.

    Spectacular Cat Chat. Cat and Erin look so comfortable, and like they are having great fun doing this. The background foliage is soothing. The photos of today and drawings of the future really add to the conversation. I hope the event on Saturday is a wildly successful.

    30th Cat Chat! Hard to believe. From good to really great. When you’re rich and famous, I look forward to seeing Jay Leno (or someone much better) play a clip from Cat Chat #1 as he interviews you.
