Welcome, honored guests, to Tiki Kon 2012! It has been our honor and joy to bring you the best tiki and Polynesian pop extravaganza in the Pacific Northwest for ten years in a row. This year we're pushing it over the top, and hope to set a new standard for years to come.
Our home base this year is the Red Lion Jantzen Beach, a full-service resort with easy access to Portland. Whether you're staying at the hotel or coming in for the day, the hotel and our event staff are prepared to accommodate you. In addition to providing discounted room rates for the event, the Red Lion has invited all Tiki Kon event guests to enjoy their facilities. You can find lots of information on our website and the Red Lion website, but we've prepared this orientation guide to help you make the most of our visit!
