Christmas On The Avenue 2025 will take place on Nānākuli Avenue, spanning from Mano Avenue to Pililaau Avenue. This annual event brings together thousands of community members to fellowship, enjoy ‘ono grinds, experience local talent, and reconnect with familiar faces. This year, we are proud to feature signature traditions such as Operation Blue Light Christmas, presented by Nanaikapono Protestant Church and the HPD District 8 Community Police Team. Additionally, ‘Elepaio will host a Kupuna Pantry, offering FREE produce and food bags to all kupuna attending the event while supplies last.

4:00pm to 10:00pm

Operation Blue Light Christmas runs from 4:00pm to 8:00pm

Community Connections

An integral part of the success of this event has been its partnership with the Nanaikapono Protestant Church, its members, and the Honolulu Police Department's CPT unit. Over the past three years, they have successfully gathered thousands of gifts for kids of all ages to receive at the annual Christmas On The Avenue event.

In 2024, they collected 2,024 gifts to distribute to kids who visited their booth with a parent or guardian. This wonderful work has helped build the community’s trust in the event, its organizers, and the various partners who bring it to life each holiday season.

Additionally, we have collaborated with many schools and other community organizations to ensure safety and provide ample space to accommodate the large crowd this event attracts. These vital partnerships enable us to adequately host this event by offering space, volunteer groups, and graciously allowing us to hold it on the avenue.
