What makes Wang Chung’s special
Wang Chung’s is a small gay karaoke bar in the Stay Hotel on Koa Avenue, just a few streets from the beach. It is named after the eighties band. It is best known for its owner Danny Chang, who runs the place with a lot of heart.
Every night people sing until the early hours, and the song selection is huge. On Sundays there is drag brunch with bottomless mimosas, and the signature drink at the bar is the Ho-Chi-tini.
Atmosphere and crowd
The bar is cramped and sociable, and you quickly get chatting. The crowd is a mix of queer regulars and holidaymakers, and groups of friends like to come too. With over 580 reviews and 4.2 stars, Wang Chung’s is a fixture in Waikiki.
A good fit if you …
- want to sing in front of an audience
- want to meet people quickly
- like drag brunch on Sundays
Not ideal if you …
