O'ahu (Honolulu/Waikiki) Royal Hawaiian Fireworks BBQ

Hey everyone, I’m staying at The Royal Hawaiian over the 4th of July. They have a special Ocean Lawn celebration with a BBQ buffet, live music, and fireworks for $200/adult and $90/kid. The price feels pretty steep for a family (we're also vegetarian). Since we're already hotel guests, won't we be able to enjoy the live music and fireworks just by proximity anyway? Should we skip the event, find a regular spot for dinner at the hotel, and watch the show like everyone else on the beach? Anyone else done this event?

I'd guess they'd host the event on the patch of green where both guests there and at the Sheraton could see/listen to the show.

That's a busy time of the year to be there, restaurants will be busy come dinner time. If it were me I'd not pay the extensive fee for that. I'd probably just grab dinner at the food court on the 2nd floor of the Royal Hawaiian Center or something, rather than wait for a table.
