Ariki's Luau Show

Sit back and relax as our MC takes you on a 30 to 45 minutes journey through the pacific islands. Our beautiful hula dancers in their authentic attire are graceful as they demonstrate in agility, youth, and skill with their use of handmade implements throughout the numbers. Our hula dancer will invite people out of the audience to participate in learning a HULA, this is always so much fun for all the guest. The Nifo Oti-FIRE knife dance has been passed on for generations with added movements of strength, it is always a spectacular sight added to each event. Our seasoned professional musicians are an added highlight to serenade a huge event before and throughout dinner.
