HONOLULU Magazine has been serving the people of the Islands for over well-over a century. In 1888, King David Kalākaua commissioned the magazine under royal charter. HONOLULU is among the handful of publications in the United States that have chronicled the events of an entire century. It is the oldest magazine west of the Mississippi and the only city magazine in the state of Hawai‘i. Forever respectful of our heritage, we are most proud that today’s HONOLULU is written and designed to ensure the magazine is Hawai‘i’s leading publication for the next hundred years and beyond.
HONOLULU is an award-winning, elegant, four-color, monthly magazine that reaches Hawai‘i’s savvy, affluent residents in their homes, as well as its most sophisticated visitors at select Waikīkī Hotels. With more paid subscribers than any other magazine in the state our readers represent some of Hawai‘i’s most active consumers. Our readers rely on the magazine as a “User’s Guide To The City” and have come to appreciate our authoritative voice on everything from fashion to dining to home design. Throughout our pages, readers learn where to shop, what to wear, where to dine and the latest on home trends and architecture. Our readers expect the best from us and we deliver, in many ways.
