Experience Authentic Hawaiian Hula At The Home Of Pele

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.
