Stumbled upon this market as it is down a side alley. This isn't really worth the trip off the main streets. Most of the vendors I noticed were selling the exact same merchandise so I'm really not sure the whole market is owned by the same person or they are separate. Alot of the merchandise was cheap and tacky

If you are looking for cheap Hawaiian souvenirs made in China, then this is definitely the place to go. It's just a tiny strip right in the heart of downtown Honolulu amidst all of the high end shops and hotels. In addition to the cheap trinkets they also sell some very beautiful rayon Hawaiian dresses with matching men's rayon Hawaiian shirts. It is a little cheaper and had much more selection than what they sell at Costco in Hawaii. I looked up the brand called Linen House Hawaii and was pleasantly surprised that they were 2 sister designers with roots from Vietnam.

Duke's Marketplace is now the place to go to shop with local vendors in small stalls, selling handmade crafts, Hawaiian clothing, and fresh food. It is located very close to the International Market Place, to help visitors like me who hadn't realized what the International Place has become. Instead, coming here to interact with 80 or so vendors allowed the first time visitors in our party to get the souvenir shopping fix out of the way. I did notice quite a few stores selling Hawaiian style fashion for pets and dolls. My mother-in-law took advantage to buy a dress for our stone goose, standing guard over our condo back home.

One of the few places in Waikiki that's still here (as I remembered it as a little kid)..... Sure, it maybe a tourist trap and a lot of immigrant vendors who work at the little kiosk booths are just trying to get a piece of the American dream by working hard, & doing super long hours here. Duke's Marketplace is sorta like a "mini swap meet" but instead of going down to the Aloha Stadium, you can get your souvenirs right here in the heart of Waikiki, as Duke's Marketplace is situated along Duke's Lane. To find Duke's Marketplace, if you know where the Outrigger Beachcomber Hotel is, as you enter Dukes Lane off of Kalakaua Avenue, you'll see a long lane that reaches from Kalakaua Avenue, to Kuhio Avenue, as Kuhio Avenue runs parallel to Kalakaua Avenue. Along Dukes Lane, you'll find an array of vendors selling all types of Hawaii souvenirs, like shirts, hats, woodwork, jewelry, cups & shot glasses, Hawaii magnets, bags, and probably anything else you'll find at the Aloha Stadium Swap Meet. If you just so happen to be in Waikiki, and you don't have access to a car to get to Aloha Stadium, no worries, because Duke's Marketplace has got ya covered! Like the swap meet, you can bargain with the vendors here, and if you find the right vendor, you can end up with a pretty good deal. Duke's Marketplace has been apart of old Hawaii, and I'm glad that they're still here, because the face of Waikiki has changed a lot through the years, as small local vendors have been pushed out, and high end stores have taken over mostly all of Waikiki now. If you're visiting da 808, check out Duke's Marketplace to get a taste of old Hawaii!

Nice to still have the classic... Yes this is very much for the visitors though I'm no different when I'm the one visiting looking for places like this you do still need to bargain for the item you've been searching for and as annoying it can get the search does make it so worth while. It's not as large as it used to be but having these stalls does keep the old days with the slight touch of flea market vibe right here in the midst of Waikiki is a beautiful thing along with having some services like shave ice, or fresh fruit smoothie or even a henna is cool while you browse is a fun thing to do. It can get hot during the summer as it's obviously outdoors and no covering the vibe is busy while each cart seems like a repeat of others and wonder if some tenats have multiples. Thank you!

They want to peep it out.

Super busy market on a main tourist street. Fam got me loco moco for $9.99 the first time we went to Hawaii in 2022 and brought it back to our hotel for me. Excellent rendition of the Hawaii classic. However, this time it was $13.99 less than a year later in March of 2023. Serious inflation/gouging going on. Pathetic these days. Anyways, we tried the fried chix (very good) and loco moco again (very good). Some great takeout food, coffee, desserts, drinks, snacks here. Excellent except for the greedy price increases ie the 3 rating.

All things Bohemian & Nomadic vibes throughout this street market located in downtown Waikiki/Honolulu, HI. Such a funky landmark offering close to 100 Kiosks offering every type of souvenir, food, drink & CBD products. What a fabulous way for homemade vendors/artists & local business owners to showcase their merchandise. & for us visitors/tourists to pick up goodies for our loved ones back home...Aloha.

Perfect fit!

My kids wanted to pick up a few souvenirs for their friends. I've been to Duke's Marketplace before and thought it would be a good place to start. While the kids went from cart to cart buying trinkets and various little things, I came across a cart with Hawaiian pup clothing! My husband doesn't like me dressing up our Frenchies -- but I was sure he would make an exception for a Hawaiian shirt, right? :) I wasn't too sure about the sizing, but the vendor was determined to make the sale, so he asked a lot of questions about my pups. He then showed me every style he had in stock. After we figured out the size and style, the haggling began! He was actually pretty accommodating and gave in fairly quickly -- I got a great deal. We continued to chat a bit more until the kids were done shopping. Super nice guy. I'm happy to note that the shirt and blouse fit Percy and Maggie perfectly. AND my husband really liked them!

Simple Island breakfast.  Brown rice and the basic.

Tourist spot if I may, It's decent and actually offer a lot of foods from poke of various kinds. It's also a market where I can pick up stuff I need while I am traveling-- personal care stuff, beverages, snacks, clothing. The works. Staff is friendly. I like it! Breakfasts portions are huge. I barely touched the rice but ate all the proteins. It is more tasty with Tabasco and soy sauce. Haha

This place has not changed a bit since I was last here in 2014. Located fairly far back from the street, it's easy to miss if you're not looking for it. If you're going to the Aloha Stadium Swap Meet, they sell the exact same stuff at Duke's but Duke's sells the stuff at more expensive prices. Is it horribly overpriced like the airport? No, but just buy your stuff at the swap meet if you're looking to buy a lot of stuff. We bought a wooden dolphin box here on our last trip and these exact same kiosks are still here almost 8 years later. Not a must visit but if you don't plan to go to the swap meet, this is a good alternative for cheaper priced souvenirs.

My family was visiting from the mainland, and wanted to see Waikiki and pick up a few things to take back home. I brought them right to Dukes Marketplace because I knew they'd have a lot of cool and interesting souvenirs available. We got there shortly after noon, so it was pretty empty. Made it easier for us to get help when we visited the stands. This is the perfect one stop shop for souvenirs at a good price. There's something here for everyone. Multiple jewelry kiosks, t-shirts, tiki signs, pet clothing, you name it! There's even a stand that offers Henna tattoos.

Lol that sign

When in Waikiki...we explored around in search of Duke's marketplace. It's quite hidden in Waikiki but not too hard to find since it's not crowded.. My aunt was specifically looking for this place and I told her they built the new International Marketplace where they used to be. But nope! Totally different marketplaces we were talking about as she was a determined woman. Anywhos, we parked at International marketplace and explored the strip until we coincidentally walked right by it. It's on the opposite side of Cheesecake Factory. Not too far of a walk, maybe 5-10mins depending on your pace. It's a bunch of tents down an alley. A bit tight to stroll through but manageable with a stroller. They have Hawaii souvenirs you can find at the swap meet, Walmart, and stores down North Shore. Quite pricey compared to the swap meet. The seller mentioned they pay a higher rent which made sense, le sigh. Nevertheless, aunt got some gifts for the fam in North Carolina and off we went.

Ask for the price of the fresh coconut before ordering. It was 35 dollars for me. That's a total rip off.

Ask the Community - Duke's Marketplace

Is this open nowadays?

Went on 5/1/21 and it was closed.

Did they open back up yet. I was there in October and they were closed?

Duke's reopened July 2021 and hasn't closed since. Fingers crossed!

Is this open when it rains?

Yes but it hardly rains. And if it does it's is only for a short time.

Where can I park?

There really isn't any close street parking, it's best to park on one if the side streets a few blocks away, the more toward Ala Wai Blvd the better and walk over.

Well, the Aloha Stadium may no longer exist here, but the Aloha stadium swap meet and marketplace…read morestill is thriving. If you are visiting the islands and looking for souvenirs to take home with you such as Hawaiian dress shirts, mu'u mu'us, anything to do with HAWAII including little trinkets and souvenirs. This is the place to shop. Don't waste your money in Waikiki shopping for these items. There are so many bargains at this location. The service depends on who the vendor is in each individual stalls. If you're hungry, there's food galore. There's a lot of drinks nonalcoholic drinks being served at this place. The food is a fusion of Hawaii Local favorites. Today I bought a Hawaiian designed quilt which normally would cost a whole lot of money elsewhere. I bought this quilt for $200 that fits a king size bed. I bought a bunch of clothing for my children and my grandchildren. If I had spent my money in Waikiki, I would've only been able to afford one set of clothing because of the high prices. You can come away like a bandit shopping at the Aloha Stadium swap meet.

A nice market for local craftsmen and smaller vendors to sell their products…read more The market area was on the mall level. The size of the market was not too large, and it's located near Target, Face Shop and the nearby shops along the way. The market brings a lot of foot traffic (local and visitors ) to the mall level shops near Target. The Vendors I spoke with were courteous and answered my questions about their products. Interestingly enough, I met one vendor who specifically did not want to be reviewed on Yelp. Her business was not yet on Yelp. She explained to me that she is a very small business and she did not want her business featured in a review or on Yelp. I honored the request and I hope did not post a review for her business. Vendors had all different price ranges. There were craft items, jewelry, caramels, homemade knitted items and so much more. Great for holiday gifts this year.

Currently the only craft fair in Ala Moana Center…read more.. Always love the opportunity to see the creativity, love and passion crafters create as I've always have the love to create as far as I can remember...my first art was origami, having a box full of folded origami and an insanely huge master book with patterns even a grown adult would struggle. Not only is this event is conveniently held in Ala Moana Center fronting Target lower level it was over the weekends (Saturday and Sundays) from 10am to 4pm making it possible for many to attend...myself included. Shopaholics heaven with the various items prices to please I just love it. Follow them on Instagram @honolulumakersmarket to see what are the future dates and vendors participating as they do varry at times, not very large though they do take the entire grounds on the lower level making it a great covered area to shop. I've found so many items from stickers to plants and decor. The vibe is vibrant and enthusiastic as we look for that item we never knew we "needed" is something worth the search. Thank you!

I just adore a crafty mind!…read more As a major crafter myself I love finding the creativity and boldness they all take to the next level is just inspiring. The amazing joy I find is that no two market is alike, as this December 2022 at Ward Village event was held in the former Pier 1 location next to Nordstrom Rack. I had a blast exploring @AdamJK uniqueness as each of us loved the realness we can relate to each item weather a time that says shhhh, I got a stress ball that says "Nothing Matters" and I'd really like the hat "I really don't know what I'm doing" for work lol!! His spirit was just so fun and bright :-) My other delight was One Shabby Chick @oneshabbychickhawaii and unknowingly my first tote from her was a collaboration with @makelemonadeproject a non profit to ease financial burdens and going though it myself instantly got me so of course I needed another tote! So many fun gifting ideas, Bas bookshop, jewelry ad even a random give away "fingers crossed" this pet friendly market has something for all. Follow Art + Flea @artandflea to keep updated on their events, crafty retail therapy is a real Art form! Thank you!

October 30, 2014 I took my family to the Art and Flea event…read more I caught the bus with my daughter and foster child. We met Darcie who parked her car in the Ward Warehouse parking lot. We walked across the street to the back portion behind Marukai. Admission was $3 for the adults. The two kids were free. There were food booths but we saved our hunger for Goma Tei in the Ward Center. I jumped on the bike that helped power the KTUH sound stage. I got a free bag from Kaleo newspaper. It had some cool goodies inside. At the Yelp booth, Raelyn played a trivia game. I won a Yelp thermos. Many vendors were set up in a two-story warehouse. We picked up some cool young women's clothes at a terrific discount. Andy Lee was making his art and kindly gave us a free sample. All in all a pretty good night for a family get-together or outing. Also, it seemed very pet friendly even though the theme was Tokyo. During some bedtime talk we agreed that this event was more art than flea, but the flea bargains were indeed great.

If you want an Aloha shirt, and a somewhat authentic one or even retro one, you should come here,…read morebut you should know what you are getting yourself in for. The walk from the Waikiki hotels is only about 10-15 minutes. On the strip in Waikiki you'll see a lot of places that will charge you Hawaii tourist prices for shirts - only some of which are decent. At Bailey's you'll definitely see what you want, and new or used, you might even come away with some money left over in your wallet for the next exorbitant meal. If you come in expecting space to be able to stand back and have a good look at the many, many shirts they have, well, there just isn't any. And if you want access to a dressing room, chances are you won't get that either. There is a single dressing room, and pretty much everyone goes in there with the 10-15 shirts they just picked out because they know it is the only access they will have to it (because everyone else has been in there doing the same thing, or waiting for their turn with a stack of shirts). But you'll find shirts, and ones that you like. You could pay anywhere from $10-$15 for a cheaper used one, most of the decent quality used ones are in the $25-$30 range, and then you can find some new Reyn Spooner types that might be up to $120. They have other stuff as well, but I think the majority of people probably go here to get Aloha shirts. This is very much a thrift store vibe, so if that ain't your jam, this place probably isn't for you. But it's an institution. It would be 5 stars for me, but I think it was important for clarity to take off one star just because it is an overwhelming number of shirts in a supremely confined space. My arms hurt from dragging shirts on hangers and holding the others back to try to look at them. The lady behind the counter is nice.

If you're serious about finding an aloha shirt you think you'll wear when you get back home, you…read moremight be looking for something that doesn't exist. You can find aloha shirts just about anywhere on Oahu, whether at expensive boutiques in Waikiki or in the nearest ABC store. However, the visual appeal of the shirt depends completely the eye of the beholder. With that in mind, there probably isn't any other store on the island that offers a broader selection. It's pretty overwhelming. The drawback is that the massive inventory is packed in a retail space so constrained that it can be a challenge to navigate. It took me a while to realize the shirts on the central racks are the priciest, some costing hundreds and (gasp) even thousands of dollars. There are used shirts along the wall that sell as low as $9. I wasn't particularly clear on the difference in quality, but I'll give you one guess which racks I was rifling through.

Returned today to sell some clothes that I planned to just donate. Brought six pieces, I think half had tags on still. The brands included Lex Breezy, Yireh, Fighting Eel, and Ari South. They took all six pieces for $47.50. I was happy. I gave it to my husband so he could buy our lunch with it. Someone mentioned in a review that they might discount your purchase if you sold clothes. Maybe I misunderstood because they don't. I bought two sweatshirts. My daughter wanted a BLACKPINK 2022 tour sweatshirt and I got what was tagged as All in Motion (Target brand?). No clue since the actual sweatshirt had no tags on it. It just looked like a well loved, favorite hoody with no logo. Got both for $20. Everyone was pleasant enough. Overall it was a pleasant experience. You can't be offended if they don't take your clothes. Don't expect this to be a money making venture.

As I try to condense and pare down and accept the unwanted items that are still in good condition and see if I'm able to find a better home that someone will love and not putting in the landfill. Plato's Closet is a great way to do so as they will purchase your items though mind you they are pretty full so are now pretty selective with your items. Many are targeted for teens and younger crowds with that are searching for specific brands and styles. The process is easy you check in with your iD and information and wait until you see your name on the chalkboard to which they will go over with the items they have chosen and you do still have the option to sell your items to them on this visit they seem to have wanted my eco bags which I had a bunch that they now are still in excellent condition along with some shoes. If you do find items there as well the money you receive from them items you just sold will go into a discounted price which makes it a win win in these situation and not filling the landfill with items that could have been avoided. Thank you!
