Aulani, Disney Resort & Spa at Ko Olina Stars Above Hawaii
Hawaii’s Gateway to the Stars starts with a personal tour of the galaxies followed by an educational lesson in Polynesian star voyaging Wayfinding techniques. From there, you can choose from two options: a family-friendly option or a romantic adults-only experience.
These stargazing events are hosted for children age three and up, who will not be bored during this fantastic event as their Astronomer Star Tour Guides present beautiful stories that take them on space travel throughout our galaxy where they learn about stars, constellations, and why particular objects in our solar system become visible one hour after sunset and vice versa.
You've never seen stars like this before - and you never will.
Welcome to Star Shows of Hawaii, Aulani’s signature Disney Resort & Spa at Ko Olina experience for the whole family. Our world-class professional stargazing star shows are hosted by a NASA Ambassador as your personal Astronomer Star Tour Guide and provide visitors with opportunities to learn the art of astronomy in unique settings not found elsewhere on earth. There is no experience more captivating than what we offer here in our backyard: a land where tourists can enjoy night skies so dark they remind them of being far away from home.
The Hawaiian sky was a mystical place for the Native Hawaiians to seek protection by gazing at its beauty. Reconnect with that need for comfort and reassurance as Stars Above Hawaii introduces world-class professional stargazing star shows that highlight what’s visible in our night sky while sharing ancient Polynesian Star Knowledge of Wayfinding Techniques, the Hawaii Star Lines, and how Stargazers have enriched their movements. Gaze up towards an ocean universe where you can see stars no matter where you are on earth.
