Street Riders Playlist
Available November 5th
Welcome to the Street Kitchen.
Step off the festival grounds and into the underground scene of Hawaii’s most daring street racers. Hosted by Weasel D, Street Riders is a raw, unfiltered experience where there are no checkpoints, no guidance, just the road, your instincts, and your drive to cross the finish line first.
Free Races
Spot the flare, find your route, and race to the finish line. There are no GPS or markers only your sense of direction and your determination.
Monkey’s Bets
Feeling confident? Place your bet before the race starts and unlock exclusive rewards at the end of each event in the Playlist.
Street Racing for Real
“There’s street racing for fun, and street racing for real.”
In this Playlist, the Festival steps aside to make room for Monkey’s Kitchen (MK) a local street collective that gathers across Hawaiian cities to express themselves through street art, music, parties, and rule-free racing.
Amid the Motorfest frenzy, MK’s racers remind everyone that nothing beats the true spirit of the street. Expect painted walls, wild beats, customized rides, and races with no rules only respect.
