Hula Shows

Hula shows are the epitome of Hawaiian culture. Whether you prefer the traditional dance (hula Kahiko) or modernized hula (auwana) we aim to help lead you in the right direction to get an experience you won’t soon forget!

Traditional hula take you back to ancient hawaii where performers wear ti leaf adornments dancing to the beat of ipu drums and chanting.

Modern hula features smooth movements to the infamous slack key guitar and falsetto singers.

Either experience you choose, you’ll be amazed as you watch these performers tell the stories (Moolelo) and history of these islands we call home.

Luaus

Experience treatment once reserved for Hawaiian royalty (Ali’i).

Luaus are really the ultimate experience and taste of Hawai’i. Where else can you enjoy traditional food of these islands, dancers, and traditional activities all in one night?

Luau’s are meant to be enjoyed with your family (Ohana) which is why many vendors cater to guests of all ages.

We did the research to highlight the main attractions of each venue so you can confidently choose the best experience for your family. 

Fire Dance

Fire dancing has roots in ancient Polynesia when warriors would use this to display courage and skill in combat.

The modern art of fire dancing takes you back centuries to experience this exhilarating event.

You’ll be at the edge of your seat as you watch these professionals spin their fiery weapons around up close on stage.
