Waikiki’s Newest Apple Store Officially Opens – Grand Opening Highlights

Apple Store’s Grand Opening In Waikiki This Morning
Just over two hours ago, hundreds waited bright and early in the morning, eagerly waiting for the official opening of Hawaii’s third Apple Store at the Royal Hawaiian Center. As the clock winded down, Apple employees marched through the crowd and into the store with cheers and excitement. And at 10 a.m., the newest Apple Store was officially opened for business. The first thousand people that walked into the store received a free collector’s T-Shirt.

Prior to the official opening of the Apple Retail Store, beautiful and colorful Hula dancers performed in the morning for the large crowd in front of the Apple Store. The crowd waited patiently under the hot sun, the hula performances made the time go by quickly.
