On Saturday, September 13, we are holding our inaugural fundraiser: Waves of Giving: An Evening of Island Magic & Luau featuring internationally acclaimed ukulele virtuoso Jake Shimabukuro.
This special night under the stars will blend exquisite Hawaiian cuisine, complimentary wine and cocktails, and live contemporary Hawaiian music. The luau is held in an outdoor tent in the Presidio Theatre’s courtyard where you will savor the sounds of the tiki-themed group APE, experience the grace of traditional hula, live tiki carving, and end the evening with a soul-stirring concert by international ukulele sensation Jake Shimabukuro inside the Presidio Theatre beginning at 7:30pm.
Join us for an unforgettable night where music, meaning, and island magic come together in support of something truly special.
Dress code - Tropical Cocktail
All proceeds support the Presidio Theatre’s artistic programming, our new youth and community education initiative launching in 2026, discounted tickets for our Veterans & Military Membership, and to help maintain the historic theatre. Let the rhythm of the islands carry us into a season of giving.
