Moanalua Gardens Foundation Presents Ho'omālamalama, E Ala Mai…Enlighten, Rise! Prince Lot Hula Festival XXXIV on Saturday, July 16th, 2011. The festival is Hawai'i's oldest and largest non-competitive hula celebration held each year to honor Prince Lot Kapuāiwa who revived the once banned hula in the district of Moanalua.
The event will feature both hula kāhiko (ancient) hula and chant, and 'auana (modern) hula performances. Dancers will perform on one of the few remaining pa hula (hula mounds) in Hawai'i.
There is no charge to attend the festival however a button donation to MGF is requested to raise funds to support the event. The public, and visitors, are welcome and encouraged to bring their beach chairs and mats and enjoy the fun, food and festivities under the shady monkeypod trees of Moanalua Gardens.
