Spring 2022 Commencement will be hosted at the Waikiki Shell, located at 2805 Monsarrat Avenue, Honolulu, HI 96815.
The commencement ceremony will be held exclusively with graduates and four of their guests. Children ages 3 and younger do not need their own tickets. For more details, visit the Information for Guests page.
To guarantee that each graduate can have guests in permanent seats in the Waikiki Shell during the commencement ceremony, the CUH Commencement Team has determined that four ticketed guests are allowed per graduate. Children ages 3 and younger do not need their own tickets. This decision was made after consultation with the venue, and consideration of the venue’s staff and the maximum capacity of the venue.
In the event that there are fewer graduates participating in the ceremony than expected, we may open a raffle drawing for extra tickets. Graduates would be notified of this via an email to their Chaminade student email in April.
Yes. However, guests should keep in mind that graduates will meet their guests in this area immediately after the ceremony.
No, guests must have a ticket to be admitted into the Waikiki Shell.

Non-ticketed guests will not be allowed into the Waikiki Shell. Graduates should plan to meet non-ticketed guests at a location outside of the Waikiki Shell to receive lei. We plan for the ceremony to be complete by approximately 8:00 p.m.
While there is public parking available, there are no designated or reserved parking stalls for graduates and their guests. We understand that parking will likely be difficult to find near the Waikiki Shell; in light of this, we are offering a complimentary trolley shuttle service.
