Luau Hale Hoaloha

Luau Hale Hoaloha at Mauna Lani

Experience the magic of Luau Hale Hoaloha at Mauna Lani, a vibrant celebration of Hawaiian culture and the natural beauty of the Big Island. Set in the historic grounds of Kalahuipua‘a, where the energy of Hawaii’s five great mountains - Haleakala, Kohala, Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa, and Hualalai - intersects, this luau offers an unforgettable evening of food, stories, and entertainment.

The evening begins with the ceremonial unearthing of the imu - a traditional Hawaiian underground oven. Sip on a welcome cocktail and take part in cultural activities like makahiki games, while enjoying live Hawaiian music and graceful hula performances.

A sumptuous dinner follows, featuring fresh, locally sourced ingredients from land and sea. As the sun sets, the celebration continues with captivating storytelling honoring the legends of the island’s sacred mountains, dynamic cultural performances, and a breathtaking fire-knife dance finale. Luau Hale Hoaloha is more than a feast - it’s a journey into the heart of Hawaii’s heritage.
