Blue Note Hawaii: Seating, Parking, and Dinner Tips (Thanksgiving Week)

First-timer’s guide to Blue Note Hawaii during Thanksgiving week: where to sit, what to eat, and how to breeze through arrival.

Blue Note Hawaii sits inside the Outrigger Waikiki Beach Resort — right in the heart of Waikiki. It’s intimate, well-run, and perfect for a pre-holiday laugh like Chip Chantry’s Thanksgiving In Paradise.

Seating

  • Front tables = energetic and up close; side tables are great for couples.
  • Arrive early for best seating within your section; doors usually open 1 hour before.

Parking & Arrival

  • Use the Outrigger valet or nearby garages; validate inside Blue Note.
  • Ride-share works great — curbside on Kalākaua is quick after the show.

Food & Drinks

  • Dinner menu with solid classics; order early to relax before showtime.
  • Signature cocktails + mocktails available; 2-drink minimum at some performances.
Make your night easy: book Thanksgiving In Paradise and plan to arrive 45–60 minutes early.
