Lanakila's South Pacific Holiday Show

Sunday, December 13, 2026 at 6:30PM

A celebration of Polynesian culture, music, and dance.

Lanakila's Polynesian Luau is a vibrant celebration of Polynesian culture, bringing the sights, sounds, stories, and traditions of the Pacific to the stage. Through music, dance, colorful costumes, storytelling, and audience participation, Lanakila invites audiences to experience the rich and diverse cultures that have shaped their homeland, known as the "Crossroads of the Pacific."

More than just a performance, this luau is an immersive cultural experience. Guests will journey through the traditions, history, language, and artistry of Polynesia while discovering the many influences that make these cultures so unique. From energetic dances to beautiful music and captivating stories, every part of the performance offers a glimpse into the heart of the Pacific.

The word luau is Hawaiian for "feast," and this performance is a feast for the senses, filled with movement, music, tradition, and celebration. With opportunities for audience participation and cultural learning throughout the show, there is something for everyone to enjoy.
