Outrigger Hospitality Group President and CEO, Jeff Wagoner, speaking at the launch of AHICE Aloha

The Aloha Hotel Industry Conference and Exhibition (AHICE Aloha) is set to make its return to Hawaii in November 2024 following its successful debut last year.

Hosted by HM Magazine, the popular Hawaiian event will take place on Thursday 7 and Friday 8 November in Honolulu at the Outrigger Reef Waikiki Beach Resort and the Ala Moana Hotel by Mantra.

Delegates will include some of the United States and Hawaii’s leading hotel owners, operators, consultants and suppliers, alongside global attendees.

Hot topics in hotel investment and operations will be up for discussion with top industry figures from across the Hawaiian Islands, the United States and globally taking to the stage in informative Q&A and panel sessions.

AHICE Aloha sponsor and panel moderator, THSA Managing Director, Rodger Powell, has strong ties to the Hawai’ian hotel market and is excited to see the event return to Honolulu.

“It was clear that there is a hunger for this type of event in Hawai’i – at the launch event, people were very keen to discuss the issues affecting the local hotel market as well as enjoy the networking opportunities. I am confident that this event will evolve and grow in the future.

“The hotel industry is very different in every global market with specific issues as well as cultural influences.

“The content for this conference – like every other AHICE Conference – has been very relevant to the people working in this market,” he said.

The launch of AHICE in Hawaii follows the success of the recent Asia-Pacific Hotel Industry Conference and Exhibition held in Adelaide, South Australia during May and attended by a record 1,500 delegates, making it the largest accommodation event in Asia-Pacific region.

In addition to the Asia Pacific and Hawaii events, AHICE has expanded to several key international markets including South East Asia, Far East Asia, Fiji Islands, New Zealand and the Maldives.
