This year, as part of an effort to sharpen the focus of this annual celebration, Aloha Festivals will take place for one weekend only on O‘ahu. About Hula “Hula is the great art of Hawai‘i – alive and loved in the Islands and celebrated and studied around the world. It is a dance that is innately Hawaiian and devoted to expressing the essence of the Islands, capturing in movement everything from the delicate beauty of an ‘ōhi‘a blossom to the unstoppable power of Pele.” – Julia Steele, editor at large, Hana Hou! Hula has always been a focal point in Hawaiian culture and is precious in the way it is presented. Hula tells a story, from the mele (song) chosen, to the facial expressions, hand motions, foot and hip movements. Learn to express your love for someone or depict the misty rain along the Ko‘olau Mountains. Costumes and lei also illustrate the color or flower of an sland or era of the particular dance.
