Team building on Oʻahu, with the numbers

From $40 per person

Minimum 6, maximum 30 or more

Kaimukī, Pearlridge, Pucks Alley, Mānoa, Wahiawā and Waikīkī — or your office

What it is. Kokedama, terrariums, succulent arrangements and moss wall art.

How long.

About an hour

Food and drink.

Drinks are complimentary at some partner venues.

One of only four operators on this island that publish both a price and a group range, and the strongest come-to-your-office option with a number attached. Their own words: they are completely mobile and can bring the workshop to you. An hour, forty dollars a head, and everyone leaves with a plant — this is the low-friction answer for a team that has an afternoon rather than a day.

• Comes to you
• You supply the room
• Materials included

They bring.

Their words: “All supplies and tools are included in the workshop fee, so just bring yourself.” For mobile bookings, “we’ll bring the supplies, setup, and plant-filled fun to you.”

You bring.

Furniture. “We ask that wherever you would like to host your workshop, that there be tables and chairs as we will need a flat surface area to work off of.”

Before you commit a department to it. They publish no phone number or email on the workshops page. The booking form is the only route in.

$135–$145 per person, all inclusive

Groups of 3 to 8. Private parties need a minimum of 5.

West side of Oʻahu — they publish no street address

What it is. Metalsmithing and jewellery — you make and keep a piece.

How long.

Two to three hours, worked at your own pace

Food and drink.

Scones and bubbly included, coffee and tea, and BYOB is explicitly allowed.

Small and unusually transparent: price, group range and drinks policy all published, which puts them in a club of about four. Extra pieces from $120. Bring cash for add-ons and gratuity.

• Materials included

They bring.

Their words: “All Materials & Tools Needed Included.” Pearl drilling for three pieces is included, and so are “complimentary local coffee, tea & mimosas” with a freshly baked scone. You do the forging — “You do 90% of the forging.”

You bring.

“Please bring cash for add-ons & Mermaid Assistant Gratuity.” BYOB is invited.

Twelve at Pauahi Street, thirty at River Street, and up to 300 mobile.

15 N Pauahi St and 941 River St #240, Honolulu, HI 96817 — and mobile across the island

What it is. Turkish mosaic lamps, rug tufting, terrariums, candles, resin jewellery, block printing, lei making and 3D printing. Two Chinatown rooms — twelve at Pauahi Street, thirty at River Street — or they bring it to you. 21+ in the studio.

How long.

45 minutes to two and a half hours

Food and drink.

BYOB and food friendly, published on their own page.

Private bookings run 8am to 8pm daily. The mobile format is the one that scales — everything travels as prepared kits, which is why 300 people in a ballroom is a set-up problem rather than a logistics one, and why the clear-down does not eat your evening.

• Comes to you
• Materials included
• They clear up
• Tell people what to wear

They bring.

Our words: “All materials included — just show up.” The workspace is set up before you arrive, with tools and refreshments out, and the session is instructor-led.

You bring.

Nothing. Private social events are BYOB and food friendly — bring your own beverages and pūpū if you want them.

Mess and dress.

Nothing published about aprons or clothing.

Clearing up.

Our words: “We handle the entire setup and the messy cleanup afterwards.”

Disclosure. Our own studio, and this site is run by the same people. Which is why every competitor on this page carries the same fields, the same gaps and the same warnings — including the ones we do not publish either.

1006 Kawaiahaʻo St, Honolulu, HI 96814 — some listings say 1008-A

What it is. A rage room and a splatter paint studio. Every price on the page is published.

How long.

45 minutes each, two hours for the combo or VIP, three hours for a private party

Food and drink.

Private parties may bring their own food and drink.

Kamaʻāina 15% off and a weeknight discount, both published. Closed-toe shoes are mandatory and they will turn people away — worth putting in the calendar invite.

• Materials included
• Tell people what to wear

They bring.

Their words: “you’ll gear up, pick your breakables, and unleash pure chaos in your own private rage room. With full safety gear and expert guidance.” The VIP package adds $200 of premium breakables, T-shirts, canvases and splatter guns.

Mess and dress.

Safety gear is supplied and worn, but the site never says what it is — no mention of coveralls, gloves, helmets or a closed-toe shoe rule. Worth asking before you send a team in office clothes.

$700 flat for a private handbuilding party

Publishes no group size

307c Kamani St, Honolulu, HI 96814

What it is. Ceramic handbuilding in a design shop in Kakaʻako.

A flat rate rather than a per-head one, which is genuinely easier to get through an approvals process — but they do not publish how many people it covers, which you will need before you can use it. They do publish a cancellation policy: 72 hours notice, refunds case by case with a 6% penalty.

They bring.

Nothing published for the private group workshop beyond the format and a $700 handbuilding party price. The equipment and tools list on their site belongs to the studio membership, which is a different product — do not read it as included.

What it is. Glassblowing and torch work.

How long.

90 minutes

Pieces are annealed overnight and posted to you the following week, which means nobody carries anything hot out of the building and remote team members can be sent theirs. No group size is published.

• Materials included
• Tell people what to wear

They bring.

Their words: “All participants receive safety equipment and thorough instructions before beginning.” No experience needed. Your piece is annealed overnight and mailed the following week — you do not take it home on the day.

You bring.

A hair tie for long hair, and a camera if you want photos.

Mess and dress.

The clearest dress guidance of any operator on this page: “Please wear closed-toe shoes and natural fiber clothing (cotton, linen). Avoid synthetic materials like polyester or nylon. Long hair should be tied back.” Tell your team before they get dressed, not when they arrive.

Private workshops for groups of four or more

1136 Nuuanu Ave, Honolulu, HI 96817

What it is. Leatherwork — a leather lei, or a crossbody bag.

Classes usually run on Sundays, and Chinatown parking is free then, which is a real saving for a group. They publish no price, no phone and no email on the workshops page.

They bring.

No supplies list. The page says workshops are led by guest makers — the leather lei class is hosted by Tidal Theory — and that the lei class uses full-grain vegetable-tanned Italian leather with naturally dyed silk ribbon options.

Up to three people is 90 minutes; four to six is two hours; up to twelve by arrangement

Downtown Honolulu — their own contact page publishes no street address

What it is. Wheel throwing or handbuilding. All materials included and you keep two or three pieces.

How long.

90 minutes to two hours

The clearest published relationship between group size and session length of anyone here — but no price at all, which is the trade.

• Materials included
• You clear up
• Tell people what to wear

They bring.

Their words: “All the necessary materials are included.” The instructor trims and glazes your pieces afterwards, and you choose two or three to keep. Clays and glazes are lead- and toxic-free.

Mess and dress.

No apron or clothing guidance, but the studio is serious about clay dust and says why: “Please NO sweeping! This will only create a dust cloud that we want to avoid. Mopping only,” and avoid working bone-dry clay because of silicosis risk.

Clearing up.

Their studio policy applies to everyone in the room: “Everyone that comes and uses the studio is requested to thoroughly clean up after yourselves; wedging table, work table, wheel, buckets, sponges/tools and around the wheel.”

A good studio, and the one everybody recommends for clay on this island.

• Materials included

They bring.

Their words on both options: “All materials and firings included.” For off-site: “Got a party space? We’ll come to you with all the necessary tools and equipment!” Private parties are hand-building only — wheel work requires the studio.

Lot 39A, Ohana Farm Parcels, Paalaa Uka Pupukea Rd, Wahiawā, HI 96786

What it is. Carving a tiki, ages 12 and up, Monday to Saturday.

How long.

Six to eight hours

The most expensive and the longest thing on this page, and realistically a very small group. It is a whole working day and you leave with a carving they value at over a thousand dollars — a reward for a handful of people rather than a department activity.

• Materials included
• Tell people what to wear

They bring.

Their words: wood, professional tools, expert guidance and your finished carved art — “All materials included.” You use real tools, from power tools for shaping down to chisels for detail. Maximum three people per lesson.

You bring.

Closed-toe shoes, a water bottle, and clothes you do not mind ruining.

Mess and dress.

They are honest about it: wear “comfortable clothes you don’t mind getting dusty” and closed-toe shoes, in “a real, working studio where master carvers create their art every day… where you will see wood dust in the air.” No dust masks are listed as provided.

Same shape of proposition as the tiki carving — a serious day for a few people, not an afternoon for thirty.

• Tell people what to wear

Not published — ask what is included before you compare prices.

Mess and dress.

Their words: “surfboard building does take some elbow grease so be ready to get dirty & put in some work!” Note the hard limit that comes with it — “due to the tools involved with board construction we have a 18 year old age requirement.”

198 Paoakalani Ave, Honolulu, HI 96815 — games run outdoors across town

What it is. Outdoor scavenger hunts and hybrid escape-room road rallies, played in teams across the city.

How long.

60 to 90 minutes

The most transparent operator in this entire report, by a distance. They publish a per-head price and a minimum and maximum for every single format, which nobody else does. If you have a headcount and a budget and you need an answer today, start here.

They say they keep a full-time team on corporate coordination, and the venue is open 8am to midnight, which is more scheduling room than anywhere else here. They publish no price and no maximum group size. Corporate enquiries are answered weekdays 9 to 5.

1450 Ala Moana Blvd Space 2404, Honolulu, HI 96814

What it is. A live game-show set with a host and rotating mini-games.

Good format for a large group that will not all fit in an escape room. Two things to know: it shares a suite number with The Escape Game, so the two brands appear to be co-located, and the contact hours on the site are given in Central Time, which suggests a mainland booking desk rather than someone local.

• Materials included

They bring.

Their words: “your team steps onto a real game show set, complete with lights, music, and a live host.” Five or more rotating mini-games, a soundstage, buzzers. Studio capacity is 2 to 14, and “Groups larger than 14 may be split into two separate studios.”

4303 Diamond Head Rd, Manono 111A, Honolulu, HI 96816

What it is. A culinary competition in a teaching kitchen, judged by professionals, followed by a facilitated team-building discussion.

Kapiʻolani Community College bills this as the first of its kind in Hawaiʻi, and the facilitated debrief is the part no commercial operator offers. Of everything on this page, a University of Hawaiʻi department is the one most likely to be able to accept a purchase order and issue a W-9 — but they publish nothing about it either, so ask when you ring.

They bring.

Thin. Hawaiʻi’s first Culinarium Team Building Experience, run with the Culinary Institute of the Pacific, where “participants will create meals that are judged by a professional chef.” No price, no inclusions, no equipment detail. Enquiries go to a named person and a phone number.

Billing your company.

The one operator on this entire page that publishes a corporate billing route — and it is not on the Culinarium page, it is on the college’s registration page. Purchase orders are accepted by walk-in, mail or fax, and: “Agencies submitting purchase orders for student registration fees will be billed regardless of attendance, unless notification of withdrawal is made by the specific refund deadline.” Nothing about W-9s or net terms. Being a state community college is the reason, and it is why this is the safest answer when procurement will not release a card.

Capacities published for every space, prices for none — which is at least the right half to publish, since the room size is what rules a venue in or out.

• Materials included

They bring.

Their words: “150+ private events hosted in 2025,” indoor and outdoor spaces for 20–250, an on-site brewery, full bar and curated food, valet parking. Four spaces: the Carport at 45, the HI Brau Room at 45 with its own bartender, the Beer Garden at 150, and a full buyout at 250.

Billing your company.

Nothing about invoicing or purchase orders. The only payment sentence on the whole site is about splitting the bill: “We can accommodate up to four (4) payment cards per party at this time, including private event bookings.” If four cards will not cover it, ask before you book.

What it is. Lei poʻo, orchid lei, ti leaf lei and floral arranging, taught with traditional techniques. All supplies included.

The one verified answer on this island for lei making at corporate scale — they explicitly sell it for team building and corporate gatherings. Reservation only, and everything else is by conversation.

• Materials included

They bring.

Their words: “hands-on workshops for groups of 15 or more, led by an experienced instructor.” You learn lei poʻo, orchid lei, ti leaf lei and floral arrangements, and “All supplies included.” Reservations by phone or email only.

1024 Queen St, Honolulu, HI 96814

What it is. Corporate wellness and Hawaiian cultural offerings in one place — lei making, hula, ʻōlelo, oli and lomilomi, alongside yoga, mindfulness, nutrition and group facilitation.

The only operator here spanning both wellness and Hawaiian culture, and they will come to your office, run it at their Kakaʻako centre, or do it online. They publish no price, no group size and no email.

• Comes to you
• Materials included
• You clear up

They bring.

Their words: “we provide the basics: giant monitor, flip charts, whiteboard, table, and chairs,” plus a full Zoom setup and breakout movement sessions in hula, yoga, Nia and tai chi. Catering on request. Rooms run from the 325 sq ft Sun & Moon Room up to the Barefoot Ballroom with Ohana Hall, which “easily holds 150 people.” A vegetarian, alcohol-free facility.

Clearing up.

Read this one before you book: “You are asked to leave the room in the condition you found it, clearing any trash, cleaning mirrors and sweeping/mopping the floor as needed,” against a $100 damage deposit refunded after inspection. Somebody on your team owns the mop.

90 N King St #212, Honolulu, HI 96817

What it is. Native Hawaiian kapa — garden kapa workshops and school programmes.

Kapa is not taught commercially anywhere else we could find on this island, and the practice passes through practitioners rather than through shops. Their jewellery shop is closed for updates; the workshops appear to continue.

• Materials included
• Tell people what to wear

They bring.

Taught by Kumu Page “Pūkoʻa” Chang, and the wauke is hers — you harvest and process plants grown in her Waimānalo garden and pound kapa there. Tools are supplied and “Each guest leaves with their own handmade piece of Kapa.” One to ten for the introduction; over ten, call.

You bring.

A $50 materials charge applies to the tool-making workshops, collected separately. If she comes to you, you supply “an appropriate location of your choice” — up to 20 students.

Mess and dress.

Outdoors and hands-in-the-dirt: harvesting, peeling and pounding bark in an open garden. Nothing published about dress, which given the work is worth asking about.

Island-wide — they come to the site

What it is. A private beach cleanup with an educational discussion, the cleanup itself, and debris sorting. They bring supplies and equipment and handle hauling and disposal.

Food and drink.

Sustainably sourced meals available as an add-on.

Every option includes a post-event impact report, which is the thing that makes a CSR day defensible internally rather than just pleasant. They publish their FEIN on the corporate page — the only operator in this whole report to publish a tax identifier, which is at least a partial answer to the invoicing question.

• Comes to you
• Materials included
• They clear up

They bring.

Their words: “Our staff will take care of the supplies and equipment, hauling and disposal, and event logistics.” An educational discussion is included, a sustainably-sourced meal is optional, and “A post-event impact report… is included with all private and corporate cleanup options” — which is the thing that makes this reportable internally.

What it costs.

Not free for companies, and they are straight about it: “Costs for this type of cleanup vary as every cleanup is different,” varying “by size, logistics, and menu options.” Free is for student groups, nonprofits and some community groups. No figure is published.

No fee, and your group gets free valley admission on the day of service

59-864 Kamehameha Hwy, Haleʻiwa, HI 96712

What it is. Exclusive group service projects in the valley, for businesses, schools, civic clubs and teams.

Book ahead.

Typically scheduled one to two months in advance

Free service in the morning and free run of the botanical garden and waterfall afterwards is the best value of anything on this page, and it publishes a lead time, which almost nobody does. There is also an Adopt a Garden programme for a longer commitment.

• Waiver to sign

They bring.

Their words: “We share knowledge and provide training to all volunteers.” No tools, gloves, water or food are mentioned.

You bring.

Not published, which for an outdoor work day on the North Shore means ask. Assume water and sun protection at minimum.

Waiver.

Their words: “Volunteers will be required to sign waiver forms that are provided on the morning of their event.”

Minimum age.

Sixteen for Hānai ʻĀina workdays, and minors must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. Relevant if your team includes interns.

What it costs.

No fee published. The only money language runs the other way: groups “earn free admission on their day of service”, so the usual valley admission is waived.

3660 Waiʻalae Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816 — work happens in Maunalua Bay

What it is. Pulling invasive algae out of Maunalua Bay, standing in the water.

RSVP by email only, and everyone signs a waiver. Bring water, sunscreen, water shoes and gloves — they have a limited supply of gloves and nothing else.

• Tell people what to wear
• Waiver to sign

They bring.

Their words: “Mālama Maunalua does provide water shoes and gloves, but in limited quantities and only in adult sizes.” Plan as though they will run out.

You bring.

Their list: “adequate amounts of water to stay hydrated, sunscreen, and clothes that can get wet such as rash guards and board shorts. Towels, water shoes, hats, and a change of clothes are also recommended.” They ask volunteers to bring their own footwear and gloves where possible.

Mess and dress.

This is work in the water at Maunalua Bay. Everyone gets wet, and a change of clothes is not optional in practice.

Waiver.

Required, and done in advance: “All huki volunteers must fill out a waiver form.” It is a fillable online form, so send it round before the day.

46-406 Kamehameha Hwy, Kāneʻohe, HI 96744

What it is. Loʻi kalo restoration in Heʻeia — working in the mud in a functioning taro system.

How long.

A morning

Book ahead.

Liability waiver required in advance

Food and drink.

A light lunch is provided.

Free community work days on the second Saturday of the month, lunch included and showers on site. No dedicated corporate package is published, so a team joins the community day rather than booking a private one.

• Materials included
• Tell people what to wear
• Waiver to sign

They bring.

Their words: on conservation workdays, “Gloves and hand tools are provided.” On community workdays, “A light lunch is provided at the end to all volunteers” and “we have showers available for you to use after the fun!” — the showers being the detail that tells you what kind of day it is.

You bring.

Their list: reusable water bottles, hats, sunscreen, bug spray, towels. And explicitly do not bring: precious jewellery, pets, high heels. For loʻi and māla days, slippers rather than tabis, because tabis get stuck in the mud.

Mess and dress.

Their words: “Come dressed to get dirty.” Work clothes you do not mind staining, long trousers and long sleeves for conservation days, closed-toe shoes, and a full change of clothes. The showers are provided for a reason.

Waiver.

Their words: “All participants are required to fill out a Limited Liability Waiver before attending our free events.”

What it costs.

Community workdays and the monthly second-Saturday event are free. The only published rates are for educational visits — $10 per person for Hawaiʻi-based schools, $15 for non-residents, including adults. Nothing is published specifically for a company group, so ask rather than assume free.

91-1621 Keoneula Blvd, ʻEwa Beach, HI 96706

What it is. Indoor and outdoor space around a surf lagoon and wake facility in ʻEwa Beach.

The largest published capacity on this page by an order of magnitude. One constraint worth putting in front of your planner early: the entire site is single-use-plastic-free and clients and vendors have to comply, which changes your catering brief.

They bring.

Published capacities per space, which is rare: Sessions at 100 reception, the Event Lawn at 3,000–5,000 standing or 1,500 seated, the Lagoon Promenade at 150, the Boardwalk at 100, the Fire Pit Terrace at 100. Sessions includes electricity, TV, in-house AV, three microphones, restrooms, free parking and wifi.

You bring.

Catering, if you do not use their partners — you may bring your own. Tables and chairs are not listed as provided. And a real constraint: “The entire site is a single-use, plastic-free site. We require Clients, and their vendors, to do the same.” Tell your caterer before they quote.

Their words: every package includes a show or activities in your own private room, round-trip transportation and a microphone, with “all-inclusive pricing for events includes taxes and fees.” Rooms have published minimums and maximums — the Nova Room takes 100–130, a lounge or ballroom buyout 30–230, the whole boat 1,000–1,200. Hula lessons, lei making and ukulele lessons are offered alongside the shows.
