All Reviews for Luau, Shows & Entertainment

A truly unique experience. As you board the spacious and comfortable bus in Waikiki the staff prepares you for your journey. You are given a virtual reality headset that is adjustable and comfortable. The virtual reality is interactive, and educational. As the bus is moving it actually feels like your body is moving through the experience. The colors, animals, and sounds felt so real!

Would not recommend if you are prone to motion sickness. Would recommend if you are interested in virtual reality, and enjoy a fun ride. Comparable to a smooth rollercoaster.

We had the pleasure of attending the show and a had a great time. The staff was informative and very helpful from arrival to exit. The stage performers and musician were very talented and very enjoyable. A great evening.

Well worth the money. We highly recommend.

On the first night of my first trip to Hawaii, I attended a buffet and show. After arriving in Waikiki, I quickly went shopping and got my outfit ready before heading to the buffet. The food was delicious, and it was fun to be invited by the staff to dance together at the end.

After the meal, everyone was excited about the diverse show. I felt moved by the professionalism of the performance, but I hesitated to share too much about the content to avoid spoilers.

On the way back, I was able to take commemorative photos with the dancers, making it a valuable experience. It really immerses you in the spirit of Hawaii!

初ハワイの初日の夜にビュッフェ&ショーを持ってきました。ワイキキに入ってから早速ショッピングに出かけて、衣装も揃えて先ずはビュッフェへ。料理は美味しくて、最後はスタッフより声を掛けられて一緒に踊るのも楽しかったです。
食後は多彩なショーにみんな大盛り上りでした。内容に触れるとネタバレ的になるとどうかな？と思うので、プロ意識の高いショーに感動を覚えました。
帰りにはダンサー達と記念撮影もできて、価値ある体験だったと思います。
一気にHawaii 化しますよ。

I had a great time! The fire was impressive and amazing! The food was delicious and there was plenty that the kids could eat!

とても楽しかった！
ファイヤーも迫力があって凄かった！
ご飯も子供達が食べれるのばかりで美味しかったです！

What a great cruise. Staff were great. So enjoyed every minute.

Crew was awesome and we had a great time !! Must do!!

Activité à ne pas manquer! Chaque site était extraordinaire, beaucoup d’informations , très culturel! Le spectacle en fin de soirée à lui seul vaut le prix du billet, à couper le souffle

Je le recommande a tous

A dinner show is something you definitely want to experience at least once when you come to Hawaii. This time, I went to "Rock-a-Hula"!

When I arrived at the venue, the staff greeted me with a smile and placed a lei around my neck, instantly putting me in a Hawaiian mood. There was a hula lesson, and even beginners can easily learn some simple steps. Dancing together creates a sense of unity and is so much fun!

Additionally, there was a time for each group to play the ukulele. The atmosphere is relaxed, making it enjoyable even for those who are trying the ukulele for the first time.

The staff primarily speak English, but when I mentioned I was Japanese, they responded with a friendly "Hello!" in simple Japanese. The menu also had Japanese options, and there were quite a few Japanese guests, which made me feel at ease.

Dinner was served buffet-style, and the meat they grilled right there was particularly juicy and delicious.

After the meal, it was finally showtime! The show was a fusion of rock and Hawaiian music, and the performance of Michael Jackson was astonishingly similar to the real thing! The recreation of his dance moves and gestures was impressive, and there were loud cheers from the audience.

Moreover, the fire show was thrilling and kept everyone on the edge of their seats! The energy from the stage was palpable, and it was incredibly exciting.

ハワイに来たら一度は体験してみたいディナーショー。今回は「ロック・ア・フラ」に行ってきました！
会場に着くと、スタッフさんが笑顔でレイをかけてくれて、気分が一気にハワイアンモードに。
フラレッスンがあり、初心者でも簡単なステップを教えてもらえます。みんなで踊ると、一体感が生まれて楽しい！
さらに、グループごとにウクレレ演奏の時間もありました。初めてウクレレに触れる人でも気軽に楽しめる雰囲気です。
スタッフさんは基本英語ですが、「日本人です」と伝えると「こんにちは！」と簡単な日本語で対応してくれました。メニューも日本語があり、客層も日本人が多めだったので安心感があります。
ディナーはビュッフェスタイルで、特にその場で焼いてくれるお肉がジューシーで美味しかったです。
食事が終わると、いよいよショータイム！
ロックとハワイアンが融合したショーで、特にマイケル・ジャクソンのパフォーマンスは驚くほど本人にそっくり！
ダンスや仕草の再現度が高く、客席からも大きな歓声が上がっていました。
さらに、火を使ったショーは迫力満点で、ハラハラドキドキの連続！ステージの熱気が伝わってきて大興奮でした。

The way this show was organized and put together was amazing. We enjoyed every aspect of the show. They made it feel like you were a part of the performance the entire time. The only reason I gave the good rating was because the photographer didn't take enough time arranging our family of 17 so you could see everyone in the photo. Also she quickly snapped the two pictures before we were ready so eyes were closed in both pictures. We also wanted individual family photos and she wouldn't do it for us. She would have made more money by all of us buying a photo package. The food was OK, it was a little cold and the pork was dried out.

OLL did not disappoint- from the seamless entry, delicious drinks and food to the amazing stories and hula dancers. We enjoyed every moment and had the best time with core memories made! Parking can be tricky so arrive early or park across the street at the cannery to avoid the rush.

It was raining. The show has been canceled. Hotel should have roof cover.

I felt the desire to experience a different culture at least once during my trip, so I made a reservation. The venue was located inside the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center, which was easily accessible, and I was able to find it without getting lost! Before the show, we enjoyed a buffet with a wide variety of dishes, including some very large pieces of meat, which left us extremely satisfied! During the meal, we could also watch the dance performances, and those who wanted to join in could dance along, which was a lot of fun!

We were able to sit in the front row in the center for the show, and I was moved by the powerful performances. It was a memorable show that I highly recommend!

旅行中に１回は異文化に触れたいと感じ予約をしました。会場はロイヤル・ハワイアン・ショッピングセンター内でアクセスしやすく、迷うことなくたどり着くことができました！ショーの前にビュッフェをいただきましたがお料理も種類豊富で非常に大きなお肉もあり大満足でした！食事中もダンスをみることができ、希望者は一緒に踊ることもできたので楽しかったです！
ショーも真ん中１列目でみることができ迫力ある演目に感動しました。
思い出になるショーでおすすめです！

The venue was compact, so the stage was close and had a powerful impact. I was captivated by the Hawaiian-themed performance, and it became a wonderful memory of my trip.

会場がコンパクトなので舞台が近く迫力がありました。ハワイらしい演出に魅了され、旅の良い思い出になりました。

Cirque du Soleil Hawaii put on a masterful show of graceful acrobatics and other tricks accompanied by beautiful island music. Well done.

Our family of 6 adults and 1 infant had an amazing time. The food was fantastic, the staff were fantastic and the show was fantastic!! If we ever make it back to Maui, we most definitely will attend this Luau again.

There were thrilling action-packed shows and entertaining performances that made me laugh, and I had an amazing time.

手に汗握るアクション的なショーもあり、笑ってしまうようなエンターテイメントもあって、最高な時を過ごせました。

Although it was a small space, I was captivated by the dynamic performances and composition, losing track of time while enjoying it. I'm looking forward to the next performance in Japan!

こじんまりした空間ながら躍動感ある演技と構成に魅了され時間を忘れて楽しめました。次回日本での公演楽しみにしています！

I encountered a rock and hula show during a peaceful Hawaiian sunset. The passionate melodies of the guitar and the powerful beats of the drums awakened a deep passion within me, creating a moment where the entire audience felt like one, experiencing a miraculous dream. Wrapped in the magic of music, it became the best experience that never got boring, and that moment became a lifelong treasure.

I felt a refreshing fusion of hula dance and rock.

At the buffet before the show, exquisite dishes made from local ingredients were lined up, creating a flavorful experience.

After the show, the expressions of the audience soaking in the afterglow were filled with satisfaction and happiness, making it the best experience etched in my heart.

It's one of the activities I want to participate in again when I come back to Hawaii!

ハワイの穏やかな夕暮れで、ロックアフラのショーに出会いました。ギターの熱い旋律とドラムの力強いビートが、心の奥底に眠る情熱を呼び覚まして、観客全員が一体となる瞬間に、夢のような奇跡を感じました。音楽の魔法に包まれ、飽きのこない最高の体験となり、その瞬間が一生の宝物となりました。
フラダンスとロックの融合を感じることが出来、とても新鮮さを感じました。
ショーの前のビュッフェでは、地元の食材を生かした絶品料理が次々と並び、味わい深い一時を演出していました。
ショーが終わった後、余韻に浸る観客の表情は満足感と幸福で溢れており、心に刻まれる最高の体験になりました。
またハワイに来た際には、参加したいアクティビティの1つです！

The food and show was amazing. Myself and my wife enjoyed ourselfs on our 46 wedding anniversary. Thanks you so much.
Mihalo

It was an emotional experience.
The seat was in the middle of the fourth row on the right side from the stage. I think it was just the right distance from the stage, not too close and not too far.
Every performance was wonderful, and there were also productions happening in the aisles, so I enjoyed it very much even though I wasn't sitting directly in front. In fact, if you sit directly in front, you might not be able to see the productions in the back aisle very well?

感動的な体験でした。
席は舞台から見て右側の4列目の真ん中です。近すぎず、遠すぎず、舞台に丁度いい距離感だと思います。
どの演出も素晴らしくて、舞台だけではなくて、通路にも演出を行なってたので、真正面の席じゃなくてもとても楽しめました。むしろ、真正面ですと、後ろの通路の演出あまり見れないかもしれません？

A new night experience in Hawaii!
I finally got to see the Cirque du Soleil's "O" show (*´艸｀*)
It was absolutely amazing!!
If you print out the special voucher from Japan, it has a QR code that the staff scans, making the process smooth☆
(On the day of the show, there were staff members who spoke Japanese! The drink cups sold at the counter near the entrance that were recommended to me looked cool! There were also soft drinks available☆)
The content was packed and truly wonderful!
Next time I come to Hawaii with my friends, I want to take everyone with me (･ω･)b

新しいハワイでの夜のお楽しみ！
行ってみたかったシルク・ド・ソレイユのアウアナショー(*´艸｀*)
最高に良かったです！！
専用のバウチャーを日本からプリントアウトしていけばそこにQRコードが付いており、それをスタッフの方が読み込んでくれるのでスムーズでした☆
（当日は日本語を話せるスタッフの方もいらっしゃいました！おすすめしていただいた入り口付近のカウンターで売っているドリンクのカップ、カッコよかったです！ソフトドリンクもありました☆）
内容も盛りだくさんで本当素晴らしかったです！
また次回仲間とハワイへ来る際は皆を連れて行きたいなと思いました(･ω･)b

In conclusion, it was amazing.
This is a show that I absolutely want everyone to attend.
I have traveled to Hawaii many times and participated in various activities, but this became the best memory of all.
With laughter, emotion, and surprises on stage, I brought my 2-year-old child, and they enjoyed it and were able to focus on watching.

There is also a bar where you can purchase popcorn, drinks, and alcohol, so being able to enjoy light snacks while watching the show was great too!

結論、最高でした。
皆さんに絶対参加していただきたいショーです。
ハワイ旅行は何度もいっており、いろいろなアクティビティにも参加してきましたが、どのアクティビティよりもいい思い出になりました。
笑いあり、感動あり、驚きありのステージで、2歳の子どもを連れて行きましたが、とても楽しんで集中して観覧できていました。

ポップコーンやドリンク、お酒の購入ができるバーもあるので、軽いスナックを楽しみながらショーを見ることができるのも良かったです◎

Absolutely fabulous!
Dancers were amazing. Musicians and singers . Loved it all!

The Luau at the Sea Life Park was outstanding! The interactions that took place and education of the culture, was so fun to see and learn. The dancers were so kind and fun to learn from!

It was a fun experience! The food was great, desserts are even phenomenal. My favorite was the salad and the roasted pork. The pineapple is so sweet! I enjoyed the Haupia. It reminds me of the version we have back in my home country. The only thing off with the entire experience was I felt we were left out and not asked how we are doing because we were a group of 2. One experience also was when we were going to the theatre for the show. We were following a group to tourist and the lady who was holding the cord closed it when the last tourist came in and followed them. Leaving us wondering where to go. If we are not allowed to go there. I get it they might have paid more for the vip experience but we were left there wondering where to go next. I admit I felt some type of way being left out again. The young girl who took pictures earlier told us where to go. Even after that we have to figure out the way to the mezzanine. I still gave 5 stars because I get it, people paid for vip services but sure hope that they paid attention as well to people who are in a budget. You know being the aloha spirit and all. Overall fun experience!

I only experienced the show, but I'm really glad I went. It was just around sunset, and the terrace seating area was very beautiful and pleasant. The heartfelt performances by all the performers were wonderful, and the content was fulfilling, allowing me to have a truly lovely time. I made several reservations for experiences this time, but I think this was the most meaningful one. I definitely want to visit again.

ショーだけ体験しましたが、
行けて本当によかったと思います。
ちょうど日が沈む頃で、テラス席の会場はとっても綺麗で気持ちが良かったです。
演者の皆さんの心からのパフォーマンスがとっても素敵で、内容も充実していてとっても素敵な時間を過ごすことができました。
今回いつくか、体験予約しましたが、1番意味のある体験だったとおもいます。
また是非伺いたいです。

I went to Hawaii for the first time. The music and hula dancing instantly put me in the Hawaiian mood! I'm glad I included it on the first day of my trip! I highly recommend it!

初めてハワイに行きました。
音楽とフラダンスで、一気にハワイ気分になりました！旅行1日目に入れて良かったです！おすすめです！

It was my first time at a circus, and I learned that AUANA incorporates Hawaiian culture, so I decided to participate and see it at a special price shortly after it opened.

Even if you don't know anything about it, you can really enjoy it, so if I have the time, I would like to go again.

サーカス自体は初めてで、AUANAにはハワイ文化が融合されていると知り、オープンからあまり日がたたないうちに特別価格で見ておこう、と思って参加しました。

何も知らなくても、ほんとうに楽しめるので時間が合えばまた行きたい、です。

We celebrated my birthday on this sunset cruise. It was a well organized event. Wonderful entertainment and the food was excellent. Our table was on the side of stage so we did not have the best view for picture taking. So much fun, beautiful views, I highly recommend.
