Big Island Luaus

Hawaiian Luaus on the Big Island

The Big Island, also known as the Volcano Island, brings a special spirit to the Hawaiian luau because the Big Island is home to the creator of the Hawaiian islands, Pele, and is also where the first Polynesians landed. Kilauea Volcano's eruptions have continued almost daily since 1981. Many of the Hawaiian luaus on the Big Island bring exciting fire dances into their Polynesian extravaganzas. The most popular Hawaiian luau on this island are found at resorts on the Kona and Kohala coasts -- such as these two:

Royal Kona Resort Luau 

The longest running and most highly acclaimed Hawaiian luau on the Big Island is back dropped by fantastic ocean views and romantic Kona sunsets. The sound of native drums pounding signals the start of this high energy and dynamic show. A traditional, all-you-can-eat Hawaiian buffet including shredded pork cooked in an underground imu, chicken, long rice, lomi salmon, coconut pudding (haupia) also offers an open bar. Performers present a breathtaking tribute to the fascinating legends and journeys of the South Pacific and Hawaii. The award-winning production is topped off with an exciting fire dance finale.

Island Breeze Luau

A favorite Hawaiian luau on the Big Island, Island Breeze is held on the historic, royal grounds of the King Kamehameha’s Kona Beach Hotel. Adjacent to the hotel and lagoon is the Ahu'ena Heiau, the restored last residence of Kamehameha the Great, as well as his final resting place.
