Luau Kalamaku has been a welcoming hub for tourists in Kauai since 2007. Known as the only Hawaii luau presentation executed “in-the-round,” it ensures the stage is viewable from all angles. Experience the miraculous extraction of the pig from the customary imu (underground oven) along with the fun of a hula lesson. Visit the craft exhibition showcasting remarkable creations by local craftsmen on the extensive lawn. Relish a variety of delectables from the buffet, that offers local and well-known dishes, and sip a Mai Tai from the bar. The main performance elucidates the fascinating tale of the ancient Hawaiian lore of Kalamaku, ‘offspring of the new territory.’ With a combination of amusement, fright, allure, and fire, a fresh heritage is born, inheriting the priceless characteristics of their forefathers. The drama-based luau spectacle concludes with an outstanding fire dream, featuring fire poi balls and customary fire knife dancing.
