An unforgettable evening celebrating the myth, music, and magic of mid century tiki culture comes to the historic Bay Theatre in Seal Beach, CA, featuring a rare live experience combining performance, film, and filmmaker conversation.

The night opens with a live performance by Tikiyaki Orchestra, delivering their signature blend of lush exotica, mid-century lounge and surf, and cinematic soundscapes — setting the perfect tone for a journey into the fascinating life of the pioneer of Polynesian Pop….Don The Beachcomber.

Following the performance, audiences will be treated to a screening of The Donn of Tiki, the acclaimed documentary exploring the wild, myth-soaked life of Donn Beach — the visionary who helped invent tiki culture and redefined escapism in American pop history.

After the film, stay for a live Q&A with filmmakers Alex Lamb and MaxWell, offering behind-the-scenes insight into the making of the documentary, the truth behind the legend, and the enduring cultural impact of tiki.
