The vast number of family-friendly festival events and activities are free to attend, enriching the local community, offering a multicultural experience for visitors and residents alike.
On Friday, June 13, 2025, the festival will kick off with the multicultural Pan-Pacific Ho'olaule'a (block party) in the heart of Waikiki with entertainment, global and local ethnic food booths, handcrafted products from cultural artisans and more.
Attendees will also enjoy the Performing Arts Showcase, to be held daily at various locations, presenting diverse ethnic performances. It presents a rare chance to see traditional cultural costumes, hear cultural instruments, and catch epic folklore and traditions.
