Entertainment on TWO stages
Leʻaleʻa Outdoor Stage
‘Ōlelo Hawai’i (Hawaiian Language) can have many different words to describe various emotions or conditions. Le`ale`a is defined as: to have a good time; fun. As you enjoy the festival (the vendors, workshops, Keiki Korner and delicious food) we also hope that you will have a good time and enjoy the performances that we have on the Le’ale’a Stage!

Kaʻūlāleo Stage inside the Armory Building
Named in honor of Aunty Mona Kaʻūlāleo Foster. Kaʻūlāleo is a voice. Spiritual in nature, but powerful in the emotion to honor in esteem. An affectionate calling that appeals to Auntieʻs immeasurable contributions and relentless years of being “kū.” We are honored to perform on this gracious platform in which to exhibit the works of cultural resilience through song and dance and always mindful of the respect that should be known and carried throughout its day of bringing a “people” together in full expression of the heart! While, knowing the name – Kaʻūlāleo!
