Join Hawaii Loa Luau for an unforgettable evening full of fun, laughter, food, drinks, and a genuine Aloha experience! 

A Hawaiian luau is probably one of the top activities that you must see while on the land of Aloha. It is a perfect opportunity to hear legendary Hawaiian stories, learn about traditional Hawaiian arts and crafts, and know more about the island’s culture and traditions. Depending on the luau, you will also get to know other Polynesian islands’ traditions, including Samoa, Tahiti, New Zealand, and others. With Hawaii Loa Luau, you will discover how different cultures influenced Hawaii into what it is now.

Held in a stunning oceanfront resort perched upon the scenic Kohala Coast where old Hawaiian kings used to gather and feast, your luau experience here is surely one that you’ll never forget. It starts with a warm lei greeting and a chance to meet their multi-talented performers to take souvenir pictures before they escort you to the luau grounds.

The open bar also starts to open, where you could order your favorite beverages, including beer, wine, cocktails, and Mai Tai. Before your eat-all-you-can buffet, you can wander around the area and try some traditional Hawaiian games. See their beautiful and artistic cultural displays, showing how excellent Hawaiian artists were. Did you know that Hawaiians were some of the best artists in Polynesia before?

As soon as the skies turn dark, it’s time to feast on your Hawaiian-style dishes, including poi, teriyaki BBQ chicken, kimchi cabbage, taro rolls, desserts, noodles, and many more! If you come with your children, there is a station that specially serves a menu for keikis (kids). When your plates are clean, prepare for a top-notch Polynesian show. Listen to interesting storytelling about how Polynesian voyagers braved the gigantic waves of the Pacific Ocean to reach and establish Hawaii while hula dancers and musicians perform on stage. 

Be amazed by the Tahitian performers as they share their story on how they arrived in Hawaii to the dynamic beat of the traditional toere drum. After which, the hosts will be telling you the story of Hawaii, a place they call home, through the hula dance. In the early times, hula was a religious dance performed before the king or ordinary people to honor the gods or praise the chiefs. It was basically accompanied by instruments and chants. When you look at the dancers, you will see an evolution of costumes and hula motions as they share the history of their beloved home.

To complete your evening, you will be watching a breath-stopping, hair-raising, and thrilling Samoan fire-knife dance wherein the stage is literally set on fire. Be mesmerized by the dancer’s skills as he displays acrobatic tricks at a breathtaking speed using a burning, sharp knife.
