The 2019 Hawaii Bowl was a college football bowl game played on December 24, 2019, with kickoff at 8:00 p.m. EST (3:00 p.m. local HST) on ESPN.[7] It was the 18th edition of the Hawaii Bowl, and was one of the 2019–20 bowl games concluding the 2019 FBS football season. Sponsored by the SoFi personal finance company, the game was officially known as the SoFi Hawaii Bowl. This was also the final college football game at Aloha Stadium, as the stadium was closed to public events due to potential issues with the stadium, and the game was moved to the Clarence T. C. Ching Athletics Complex starting in 2022 after the 2020 and 2021 editions were cancelled due to COVID-19 issues.
