Enjoy traditional island music, captivating dance, and delicious Island cuisine in a welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere.

Experience the graceful storytelling of hula and high-energy ʻOri Tahiti, performed by the dancers of Hālau Ka Ua Tuahine. Under the direction of Kumu Hula Māhealani Uchiyama, each performance shares history, culture, and joy through movement and music, honoring the rich traditions of the Pacific Islands.

This year, we are honored to feature a performance by beloved Uncle George Kahumoku Jr, a multiple Grammy and Nā Hōkū Hanohano Award-winning slack key guitar master. His relaxed manner and entertaining stories frame his easy-going, slack key guitar style.

Guests will also be treated to a taste of the islands with Hawaiian cuisine, thoughtfully prepared and served as part of the celebration by Patrick Landezaʻs Island.

Whether you are reconnecting with culture, learning something new, or simply coming to enjoy a beautiful time with the community, this lūʻau is for you. Bring your friends, your family, and your Aloha Spirit!
