The most fun you can legally have after dark, IONA's Annual Gala, The IONAsphere is always the talk of the town. Attended by 350 of Honolulu’s most prestigious art aficionados, the Gala is a primary source of operating income for IONA, supporting over 25% of the Company’s annual budget. Primary locations have included Indigo Restaurant, The Kahala, the Hawaii State Art Museum, and recently, the Sheraton Waikiki’s Helumoa Pool. Themed evenings have included ‘Shake Your Buddha’, ‘The Kamasutra Supper Club’, and ‘Where the Wild Things Are’ to name a few.






Customize your experience by selecting a themed sponsor table, such as ‘The Tantric Table of Rising Kundalini’, ‘Even Cowgirls get the Buddhas’, or ‘The Green Flashers’. Just when you think the party is over, look for premiered Gala characters to appear at corporate events and private parties.
