Waikiki’s Kuhio Beach Park Hula Show Update
Posted on Mon, May 4, 2009 by Sheila
Due to difficult economic times, Honolulu government had to cut back the number of Kuhio Beach Park Hula performances from six nights to three nights per week. The good news is that a fourth night has just been added. This excellent free hula show is now offered Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday nights near sunset. See my advice for catching the Kuhio Beach Park Hula Show at Waikiki Beach.
I highly recommend you see this show on your Oahu vacation for several reasons:
- The setting immediately by the beach at sunset is beautiful.
- The quality of the authentic Hawaiian music, songs, chants, and show is very good.
- It’s free!
I like this show so much that I include it in my list of Oahu’s top 10 free vacation activities.
In case you can’t get to Waikiki Beach to see a performance soon, enjoy this brief video of one of the performances we caught back in October.

We’re going to check this out on our first night on the island. Certainly a nice (and free) way to start our vacation. Thanks for the tip.

I have seen this hula show and came back for more shows while I was in Ohau this past Jan. The show is different every time and it is a great show to see. I saw this beach show 4 times over a 2 week period. It also provides a wonderful opportunity to catch the fantastic sunset on Waikiki Beach. The show is narrated and has many explanations of Hawaaian culture. It is full of humor and best of all it’s FREE. If you buy the cookies that are sold for fundraising of this show, they are delicious!

Tammy – thanks for sharing your experience in catching this show. As you mentioned, it’s really a great show and you can’t beat the price!
I’ve not noticed the cookie fundraiser while I’ve been there, but I’d certainly be up for trying one…for a good cause, of course.

I don’t know if this would be good to know, but a quick affirmation. I just hung up the phone with the guys holding this show, the information in this article still holds true as of March 1st, 2010

Mohammed – I do my best to try to keep everything up to date. But with nearly 1200 articles and businesses and organizations constantly changing schedules, venues, etc, it’s challenging to do. I keep a close eye on the schedule for the Kuhio Hula Show. So, I was pretty certain it was all good. Thanks for confirming.
