Old Lahaina Luau
"Since 1987, the Old Lahaina Luau has been acclaimed for presenting Maui's most authentic and entertaining Hawaiian luau. Those who join us are treated to a truly memorable evening of traditional Hawaiian cuisine, music, cultural dances and island crafts. Our guests appreciate a genuine reflection of Hawaii's rich history while enjoying a spectacular ocean view and sunset.
No Discounting Permitted.

"Its authenticity, intimacy, hospitality, cultural integrity, and sheer romantic beauty have made this Maui's top luau. Old Lahaina Luau's staff, location, educational acuity, and quality of food and entertainment make it a luau to which visitors return time and time again.
Flickering torches, surreal sunsets, old milo and coconut trees, cultural sensitivity, romance, and genuine hospitality --these are the elements we can count on with the Old Lahaina Luau." - Frommer's 1999 Guide to Maui.

Entertainment:
Upon sunset, the evening’s main entertainment begins. This award winning production tells the story of the Hawaiians. The Old Lahaina Luau is proud to present the Hula as it was meant to be performed with love and reverence. Beginning with the roots of migration, to the Kahiko, then finally the more contemporary style Hula.

Ote’a - Their program begins with the early migration of the Polynesians across the Pacific to the “new islands” of Hawaii.

Kahiko - The ancient Hula was a way of communicating with the Gods. It is accompanied by chanting, and traditional implements and is performed with respect for our ancestors.

Missionaries and the Merrie Monarch - The missionaries brought many changes. The Old Lahaina Luau presents Hula depicting this era as well as celebrating King Kalakaua.

‘Auana - The modern Hula was influenced by immigrants and tourism. Hula dancers tell their stories through their graceful moves, subtle eyes and lovely hula hands.
