Mauna Lani Luau - Hale Hoaloha

Hawaii Loa Luau at Fairmont Orchid is a memorable Big Island evening experience set under the stars on the resort's beautiful oceanfront grounds. Inspired by the voyages of ancient Polynesian navigators, the show brings the stories of Hawaii and Hawai'iloa to life through live music, graceful hula and powerful cultural performances by a talented cast. In addition, guests can enjoy a generous buffet dinner featuring island-inspired cuisine prepared by an award-winning culinary team, along with a hosted bar.

The luau takes place in a stunning setting beside Kalahuipua'a, a historic area once associated with Hawaiian royalty. Before the performance begins, guests have the chance to meet the performers and learn about traditional Hawaiian games and cultural practices. Then, the evening continues with vibrant drumming, beautiful dances from across Polynesia and an exciting fire-knife finale, while the buffet and open bar add to the festive atmosphere.
