Why do travelers choose this tour?

For anyone looking for a fun and unique way to spend an evening in Honolulu, the Rock-A-Hula luau dinner and show is an island "must do"! With a combination of traditional and modern Polynesian performances, it is a night that you will not soon forget.

Rock-A-Hula is the most budget-friendly luau in Waikiki and is a fantastic activity for couples, groups of family and friends, and more! You will get the most bang for your buck with a full night of food, drinks, and award-winning entertainment.

Since island weather can be rather unpredictable, outdoor luau shows can be cancelled due to rain or high wind, but you can be rest assured that with an indoor theater, Rock-A-Hula will not be cancelled due to inclement weather.

Featuring a large dinner buffet, Rock-A-hula has one of the best luau dinners on Oahu. Not only will you enjoy authentic island favorites like lomi lomi salmon (Hawaiian ceviche) and haupia (coconut pudding), but there are also premium dinner options including a carving station that features juicy roast beef and tender kalua roast pig.

Unlike many of the other luaus on Oahu, Rock-A-Hula is located within easy walking distance to almost all Waikiki hotels and resorts. You won't have to worry about driving or sitting in traffic, when you can easily make your way to the check-in located on the fourth floor of the Royal Hawaiian Center.
