the end of June 2024. It will then temporarily close due to a

Taking place at an oceanfront lawn at the Waikiki Aquarium, Diamond
Head Luau is within walking distance of many hotels in Waikiki. Enjoy an
evening of experiencing a traditional Hawaiian luau, complete with
delicious island-style foods and live musical entertainment. What makes
this Oahu luau special is that youll have the chance to walk through the

Prior to the luau dinner, you can watch or participate in different island arts & crafts, dancing, learning how to make a flower lei or head band and more! The activities are followed by a delicious farm-to-fork dinner, featuring a variety of local foods, including grass-fed beef, fresh line-caught fish and organic fruits and vegetables. After dinner, sit back and enjoy traditional songs and dances of Hawaii and other Polynesian island nations.
