NIGHTVISION

Hundreds of Santas, along with elves, reindeer, Christmas trees and more, took to the streets of Chinatown for the annual SantaCon Hawaii bar hop. Participating venues included Murphy’s Bar and Grill, O’Toole’s Irish Pub, Bar 35, The Manifest and Downbeat Diner and Lounge. SantaCon bills itself as a “non-denominational, non-commercial, non-political and nonsensical Santa Claus convention that occurs once a year for absolutely no reason.” The first SantaCon events were held in San Francisco and Portland in the 1990s and have spread to dozens of other cities throughout the country.
