Discover Oʻahu’s Winter Events: Sony Open & Chinese New Year Festival

Winter on Oʻahu isn’t just about the beautiful weather and stunning landscapes—it's also a season filled with exciting events that bring the island to life. Whether you're a sports fan or looking to immerse yourself in local culture, Oʻahu has something special to offer. Here’s a closer look at two must-attend events this January:




Sony Open in Hawaiʻi


Since its inception in 1999, the Sony Open in Hawaiʻi has become one of the most prestigious events in the PGA Tour, drawing golfers and spectators from around the world. Taking place at the picturesque Waialae Country Club in Honolulu, this event isn’t just about high-level competition—it also plays a crucial role in giving back to the community.


Over the years, the Sony Open has raised nearly $20 million for local non-profits, making it a beloved event for Oʻahu residents. The tournament’s charitable efforts support a wide range of causes, from youth programs to health initiatives, making it a celebration of both golf and community spirit.


Whether you're an avid golf fan or just want to experience the thrill of live sports on the island, the Sony Open is an unforgettable event. And, with Akamai Rentals, you can make the most of your time on Oʻahu with the convenience of free parking at prime locations and after-hours returns, ensuring that you can easily attend the event and explore the island at your leisure.





Chinese New Year Festival 


Oʻahu’s Chinese New Year Festival brings the magic of the Lunar New Year to life in the heart of Honolulu’s historic Chinatown. Held annually in January, this colorful and vibrant celebration takes place at the Chinatown Cultural Plaza (100 N. Beretania Street). The festival is a stunning display of culture, featuring traditional lion and dragon dances, martial arts performances, and an array of food and art vendors.


It’s not just an event—it’s an immersion into Chinese culture and traditions, offering a chance to experience Oʻahu’s diverse community. From the rhythmic beats of the dragon dance to the tantalizing scents of street food like dumplings, baos, and Chinese pastries, the festival gives you a true taste of local celebrations.
