Hula Performances At Kilauea
Experience Authentic Hawaiian Hula At The Home Of Pele
Description:
Typically held on the 3rd (or sometimes 2nd) Saturday of each month, hula halau from across Hawaiʻi have been invited to perform in a one-of-a-kind outdoor setting at the kahua hula (platform) in the Hawai`i Volcanoes National Park.
This special site was realized through the vision of (the late) hula master Edith Kanaka`ole, kumu hula of Halau o Kekuhi. The kahua hula is located just a short walking distance from the Volcano Art Center Gallery in an area known as Ka‘auea. This sacred spot affords the kumu (master) and haumana (student) a pristine view into Halema`uma`u, the home of volcanic deity Pelehonuamea.
