Hoʻokipa Hawaiʻi Weekend


February 3, 2024 | 12:00pm - 8:00pm February 4, 2024 | 12:00pm - 6:00pm Presented by the Native Hawaiian Hospitality Association (NaHHA), Hoʻokipa Hawaiʻi Weekend will be held on February 3-4, 2024 at the Royal Hawaiian Center in the heart of Waikīkī and will feature a diverse range of cultural demonstrators and practitioners, Native Hawaiian vendors, panel discussions, and family-friendly activites. Kamaʻāina and visitors are invited to participate in the two-day event to share information on cultural practices, language, and values. Demonstrations: Cultural practitioners, kamaʻāina, and visitors will engage on a level platform and facilitated space for demonstrations, exhibitions and information exchange spaces, in a safe and mutually beneficial way to share cultural knowledge and education. Kuhikuhi Marketplace: The Kuhikuhi Marketplace is a vendor (mākeke) marketplace event that is specific to Native Hawaiian-owned small businesses that have a product or service that aligns with NaHHA’s mission. Many vendors will be graduates of NaHHA's Pākōlea program which focuses on removing the barriers for Native Hawaiian small businesses to gain access to the tourism sector. This event will create opportunities for local goods and services that are sustainable, socially responsible and culturally appropriate to gain access to visitor-facing retail marketplaces while keeping local business capital gains continuously circulating in the Hawaiʻi economy. Centerstage: Located at the heart of Helumoa, mele, hula, storytelling, and panel discussions will focus on our ancestral and modern relationships and interactions with the ‘āina (land) and water; both kai (salt water) and wai (fresh water). Each day will include two panel discussions. The facilitators and panelists will be knowledgeable community pillars and cultural practitioners driven to restore cultural modalities that work from indigenous knowledge bases.
