Japanese Cultural Center of Hawaiʻi 2454 South Beretania Street, Honolulu, HI 96826

"I’ve been here for a variety of smaller events and it’s a good space. Ballrooms are a good intimate size. The location is central and convenient and easy to get to. The parking structure is ok. Some of the turns are tight and the path it takes is winding for some reason, but there’s a lot of spaces and they’re pretty wide."

"Came to the JCCH to attend a seminar, and they provided a bento for us from their new caterer, Bamboo Catering (no longer under Marian's catering). All I have to say is WOW, everything in it was delicious! High-end tasting fish, chicken, steak, garlic noodles and tsukemono! The JCCH Director, Nate Gyotoku, gave us a detailed tour of the facilities after the event; it was wonderful to see the pristine dojo, tea garden, beautiful tea house, historic exhibits, gift shop, the Heritage Center, etc.! Love seeing the preservation of cultural arts and history here! Excellent place to see a part of the Japanese American history in Hawaii via the Okage sama de exhibit and Honouliuli Center. You really can see and feel the joy and commitment the staff has to keeping the cultural spirit alive here. For any small or large events, I'd highly recommend JCCH's Ballroom or meeting room! Highly recommended!"

"What a well done museum! If you have interest in Japanese Hawaiian history, including internment, this is your place. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable."

"Had a great time at the New Year's Festival held at the Japanese Cultural Center. Authentic traditions were explored and hands-on exhibits were displayed for optimal learning experience."

"Great place to hold a large party. Staff did a nice job taking care of our 400+ sized group. Reasonable validated parking. Located across the street from Longs Drug, near University Ave."
