Description
At Ka Moana Luau, witness world class entertainment and feast on delicious luau cuisine! Join their ʻOhana (family) for an exciting evening under the stars as they take you on a voyage across Ka Moana (the Ocean). The amazing show begins and ends with fire! You will experience beloved traditions of the islands during the interactive activities before the show including lei making, hula lessons, coconut-headband weaving, poi & lomi lomi samplings, ukulele lessons and more!
Ka Moana Luau is located in downtown Honolulu at the Aloha Tower Marketplace. The harbor area and the Aloha Tower are glittering at night, and provide an attractive setting for this luau event. This convenient location makes it easier to include the Ka Moana Luau after other events you have done earlier in the day ... it is a short 15 or 20 minutes from Waikiki. Round-trip transportation is available for a fee, or you can take public transportation, Uber or taxi, or drive yourself. All luau parking is valet for a flat $10 fee, which is an excellent value for an event in downtown Honolulu.
Dinner selections include seasonal fruit salad, fresh island greens salad, local sweet potatoes, island-style taro rolls, teriyaki chicken skewers, fresh mahi mahi with papaya mango salsa, and juicy kalua pork. The upgraded luau menu for 2023 will feature an emphasis on local ingredients with a "farm-to-table" approach. For dessert indulge in coconut and guava chantilly cakes or fresh baked macadamia nut cookies. The bar offers Island Mai Tai's, wine, domestic beers, and soft drinks.
After you dine, enjoy an award-winning production highlighting the vibrant traditions of Hawaii and Polynesia! The experience culminates with a Polynesian sword of fire!

Kevin's Activity Tips:
After being held for several years at Sea Life Park on the windward side of Oahu, in 2023 they relocated to a closer-to-town setting. They scored a great location ... in the shadow of the iconic and historic Aloha Tower in downtown Honolulu. The setting is intimate and this area really glitters to life at night. Completed in 1926, Aloha Tower is one of the most recognizeable landmarks in the state. In the nostalgic period of early Hawaiian tourism most guests arrived via ship, and the tower was there to greet them.
Of all the luau venues on Oahu, we particularly recommend an upgrade to either the Celebrity or Premium Splash seating sections for a full, direct, straigh-on view of the stage.
