SAY ALOHA TO CARRIE UNDERWOOD DAY
7/19/24

Say Aloha to Carrie Underwood Day. On Thursday (7/18) Director of the Department of Business, Economic Development & Tourism James Tokioka on behalf of Governor Josh Green and Mayor of the City & County of Honolulu Rick Blangiardi presented the country star with ceremonial proclamations declaring the date Carrie Underwood Day.

The proclamations precede her first-ever performances in Hawaii on 7/19-20. Not once in the history of the Aloha State have ceremonial proclamations been issued concurrently by the state of Hawaii and the city and county of Honolulu to honor an entertainer.

"History has been made with Carrie becoming the first artist to receive ceremonial proclamations from both the state and city," local promoter Rick Bartalini said. "She is in prestigious company of entertainers that have been previously honored by either the Mayor or the Governor in this manner, including Elvis Presley, Janet Jackson, Bruno Mars and Diana Ross.”

Both proclamations were presented to Underwood at an official ceremony inside the Blaisdell Arena by Blangiardi and Tokioka on behalf of the governor.

Underwood added a second show at Blaisdell Arena in March after selling out the first in under an hour. Pictured looking forward to Mai Tais without anyone from HITS involved are (l-r) Blangiardi, Underwood and Tokioka.
