About Us
Beyond the Velvet Rope
Honolulu nights were missing something. We felt it – that craving for a place that wasn’t just another stop, but a destination. A place where the energy was infectious, the style was effortless, and the feeling of simply belonging was a given. That’s the idea that sparked Velvet.
We envisioned a space where the city's vibrant pulse could beat a little louder, a little freer. Where every evening held the promise of something electric, and everyone who walked through our doors could shed the day and step into a vibe that was both exhilarating and refreshingly real. It wasn't about exclusivity; it was about a shared desire for nights filled with genuine connection, unapologetic self-expression, and the kind of fun that resonates long after the music fades.
Velvet is our answer to that calling. We’re more than just a venue; we're curators of experiences. Our mission is to craft unforgettable nights where you can let your guard down, amplify your personal style, and connect with kindred spirits. We believe that the best moments are born from an atmosphere where you feel free to be completely, radiantly you.
From the music that moves you to the design that surrounds you, every detail at Velvet is considered with one goal in mind: your enjoyment. We’re passionate about creating a setting where you don’t just see and be seen, but where you truly feel seen and celebrated. It’s a place for laughter that’s a little louder, dance moves that are a little bolder, and connections that feel a little deeper.
We handle the intricacies – the lights, the sound, the seamless service – so you can focus on the important part: soaking in the atmosphere, expressing every facet of yourself, and making the night your own. Whether you're diving into the heart of the energy on the dance floor or commanding your view from a VIP space, you're part of what makes Velvet, Velvet.
This is Honolulu’s invitation to step into a night designed around vivid experiences and the simple, profound joy of being present in an LGBTQIA+ friendly space that embraces everyone.
Welcome to Velvet. Own the night.
