Hosts Global Introduces Hosts Hawaii: A New Era in Event Management

Hosts Global Expands to Hawaii

Hosts Global, a leading strategic partner in destination management services, has announced the upcoming launch of Hosts Hawaii. This exciting addition is set to open its doors in Fall 2025 and aims to bring renowned event management expertise to the picturesque islands of Hawaii, including Oahu, Maui, Kauai, and the Big Island.

At the forefront of this new venture is Josh Jones, who has been recognized as a pivotal figure in the hospitality industry. With extensive experience at Hosts Global as the previous Regional General Manager for the West Coast—overseeing locations such as Southern California, Las Vegas, and Seattle—Josh is now focused on establishing the Hawaii operation, infusing it with his commitment to excellence and local culture.

Josh emphasized that his leadership approach will prioritize deep-rooted relationships with clients, exceptional event design, and operational efficiency, all while honoring the unique essence of Hawaii. His hands-on approach underscores Hosts Global’s dedication to delivering meaningful and culturally rich experiences, ensuring that every event resonates with the aloha spirit.

Kurt Paben, CEO of Hosts Global, remarked, "Hawaii has always been a highly sought-after destination for gatherings and events. It was essential for us to extend our services to this remarkable location. I believe Josh has the exceptional qualities needed to lead this initiative." His track record in cultivating client trust and creatively bringing event visions to life, combined with deep respect for local traditions, positions him uniquely for success in Hawaii.

Josh expressed his enthusiasm, stating, "Launching Hosts Hawaii presents an incredible opportunity for me and the team. I am excited to elevate the Hosts Global brand in the islands and to create extraordinary events that are thoughtfully designed with cultural respect in mind."

As Hosts Hawaii prepares for its opening in Fall 2025, it is currently welcoming inquiries for various events, including meetings, incentives, and conferences. This expansion represents not just a physical growth for Hosts Global, but also a commitment to crafting unforgettable memories that honor the beauty and culture of Hawaii.
