Hawaiian Festivals

Written By: joe - Mar• 17•10

Imagine an island surrounded by cool clear water with a beautiful tropical climate and lush bright green plants and trees with colourful flowers in full bloom year round. That almost sounds like a dream vacation location doesn’t it? Well that is Hawaii year round. The islands beauty is not matched by many other places on earth and the fact that it is like that all year as opposed to a few beautiful months like most other places give Hawaii the edge.
In addition to the nice weather, Hawaiians always seem to find an excuse or reason to have a celebration. Many of these celebrations are huge and don’t last one day, they are often stretched out over the course of a week or longer. One such celebration is the Honolulu Family Festival which runs from March 25th-March28th. The family festival has a long itinerary set out already that will have the attention of those in attendance all day. There will be live musical acts playing back to back nearly non stop. All different types of foods will be available from traditional dishes to new favourites to desserts and almost every other type you can imagine. There will be a puppet show on display for the young children and rides will be set up as well. They will also have the hypnotist Dr. Scott Lewis in attendance and he will be doing a number of shows throughout the event. There is no fee to enter the festivities but the tickets for the rides and food will not be expensive. The proceeds from the Honolulu Family Festival are all going to the refurbishment of Ala Moana Beach Park. The park is used by Hawaiian citizens and tourists for parties. BBQ’s, and just to hang out in so raising money to refurbish it is a good cause. While in Hawaii and attending this or any of the various festivals a hotel will be needed. Be sure to check out the various hotels throughout the island you will be guaranteed to find one to meet your needs.
