Welcoming guests to Kauai since 2007, Luau Kalamaku is Hawaii's only luau show performed “in-the-round,” offering optimal views of the stage. Witness the unearthing of the pig from the traditional imu (underground oven) and enjoy a hula lesson. A craft fair featuring unique items by local artisans awaits on the sprawling lawn. Feast on a delicious buffet of local and familiar favorites and enjoy a Mai Tai from the open bar. The main show tells the amazing story of the ancient Hawaiian legend of Kalamaku “child of the new land." Through laughter, fear, seduction and fire, a new legacy is created, born from the cherished seeds of their ancestors. The theatrical luau show culminates with a fantastic fire dream featuring fire poi balls and traditional fire knife dancing.

Luau Kalamaku combines traditional luau elements - a Hawaiian feast, hula dancing and an imu (underground oven) with an award winning, theatrical performance. Gather under a massive open air pavilion to enjoy live music and a buffet dinner of local Hawaiian favorites. Grab a Mai Tai from the open bar before the lights dim, signaling the start of the theatrical and fiery show which chronicles the story of ancient Hawaiian's epic sea voyage from Tahiti to Kauai.

  • Luau was Ok

    I read one should arrive early to het a table up close. We were second in line and our table was quite a ways in the back. We asked to be moved closer and they wouldn’t do it. This experience was quite different than the luau I went to on Oahu which was on the beach and we watched the pig uncovered. It was outside by the beach. This one is covered which was nice as it rained. The food was ok as was the food at my prior experience. It’s hard to make great food for that many people.

  • Good show, but the food...

    Good show, but the food and drink selection was limited and lacking. We also felt that it was a little too crowded for what the staff could accommodate. The cute tents with local vendors outside was a nice touch though.

  • A Hot Show!

    The show was entertaining, but it was extremely hot in the covered ten show area. Better to book as a group bc we were seated separately after indicating our group. For as many workers they had, the service was mediocre. I had to ask the server for more water twice! Why bc it was very hot under the covered rented area and all of the ten people at the table were thirsty! Didn’t feel the authenticity of the story, very Disney.

  • Great show!
