For more than two decades the convention has drawn people from all over the globe to celebrate Tiki culture.
This year Tiki Oasis celebrates the Caribbean Islands and their influence on Tiki subculture with the theme of “Trip to the Tropics.” Caribbean flavors, rum, dance and music have all shaped the Polynesian pop scene and will be highlighted at this year's event.
