Highlights
The Pāʻina Waikīkī Luau is a vibrant celebration that combines Hawaiian history, cultural practices, and artistic performances. Set against the backdrop of Waikīkī’s famous shoreline, the evening unfolds with the melodic songs and graceful dances passed down through generations. Each performance tells a story of love, respect, and the deep connection between the people and the land.
Engage with kamaʻāina (local islanders) who share their skills in hana noʻeau (cultural arts). Participate in activities such as Kui lei (making floral adornments) and learn about tatau (tattooing), where you’ll discover the meanings behind Polynesian tattoos. Brave a temporary tattoo to take a piece of the culture with you.
Hula invites everyone to join in the rhythm, creating a sense of unity. The fire knife dance, originating from Samoa, is a thrilling highlight where dancers spin blazing knives with incredible precision. The dramatic performance captivates the audience, leaving them in awe.
The Pāʻina Waikīkī experience goes beyond entertainment—it’s a heartfelt journey into the soul of Hawaii. Through storytelling, art, and dance, you’ll gain a deeper understanding and appreciation for Hawaii’s heritage, leaving with lasting memories and a connection to the islands and their people.
