Aloha Stadium

Honolulu Stadium was a multi-purpose stadium located in the Moʻiliʻili district of Honolulu, at the corner of King and Isenberg Streets. Opened in 1926, it was the primary sports venue in Hawaiʻi for the next 49 years. The stadium held roughly 24,000-people with only 80-parking stalls. In a live.work. play concept, you parked where you could and walked as far as you needed in order to get to your event.

• It was the home of the Rainbows of University of Hawaiʻi (1926-1975,) the Hawaiians of the World Football League (1974) and the Hawaiʻi Islanders of the Pacific Coast League (1961 to 1975.)
• April 20, 1961, Honolulu Stadium hosted the first game of the new home-team Hawaiʻi Islanders, a minor-league pro baseball franchise of the Pacific Coast League. (The Islanders beat the Vancouver Mounties 4-3.)
