We decided to see a hula and fire dance show during our first trip to Hawaii as a three-generation family. We researched online and read many reviews to choose which show to attend.
Honestly, regarding the food, it's better not to have high expectations, as others have mentioned; a buffet style usually offers this kind of experience. However, we were very satisfied with the show in terms of content and duration; it was truly a professional performance. The hula danced by the woman in the center and the fire dance by the men exceeded our expectations.
In the city and restaurants in Hawaii, it seemed that nearly 70% of the visitors were Japanese, but I think it was about 20% here. There were a few staff members who spoke Japanese, but since the only conversation needed was for drink orders, there was hardly any need to worry about communication.
3世代家族、初めてのハワイ旅行ということでフラ・ファイヤーダンスを見ることにしました。
インターネットで調べてどこのショーを見るか、書き込みなどを沢山見て決めました。
正直、食事については他の書き込み通りであまり期待をしないほうが良いですが、ビュッフェスタイルだとこんなものだと思います。
ショーについては内容・時間ともに非常に満足できるもので、まさにプロフェッショナルのショーでした。
女性のセンターで踊る方のフラと、男性のファイヤーダンスは期待以上のレベルです。
ハワイの市街地やレストランなどでは7割近くが日本人という割合でしたが、ここでは2割位だったと思います。 日本語の出来るスタッフも何人かいましたが、会話が必要なのはドリンクオーダーくらいなので、会話の不安は殆ど不要です。

I participated for the second time in six years on October 30. The park hasn't changed much, but this time there was a canoe tour included, allowing us to see the villages from the canoe while seated, which was helpful for us older folks as it reduced the amount of walking.
The Hawaiian Journey, which showcases Hawaii's beautiful hidden spots on a big screen and allows you to experience it through seat vibrations, was narrated in Japanese and was very satisfying.
The show after the meal, especially the fire show, is a must-see. From the hotel pickup to the guidance around the park, the university students nearby kindly provided all the information in Japanese, allowing us to enjoy the day with peace of mind and great satisfaction.
10月30日に6年ぶり二度目の参加。園内はさほど変わっていないが、今回はカヌーツアーが含まれており、園内の村々を座ったままでカヌーから見られるので、我々年配者でも歩く度合いが少ないのは助かる。
ハワイの美しい秘境が大画面、座席の振動で体感できるハワイアン・ジャーニーは日本語での解説であり、大満足であった。
食事後のショーは特にファイアーショーは必見である。
ホテルでのピックアップから園内の案内など隣接する大学生がすべて日本語で親切に案内してくれるので、一日安心して楽しめ大満足であった。

I didn't have much time, and since we had a mix of older adults and children, I chose this option. I tried almost all the dishes, and they were all quite delicious. Considering the dance performances, I felt it was a good choice. (My young son started to look a bit bored during the show, but his eyes lit up during the final fire dance. He was amazed and watched intently.)
We drove there, and the parking was located in a building on the right side shortly after entering the premises. I realized that building was the Mid-Pacific Conference Center, and after getting out of the car, I took the nearby elevator straight up to the venue, which was very easy. (When I handed the parking ticket to a person in a light green aloha uniform inside the venue, they processed it through a machine and stamped it for free.)
For the tattoo experience (they were using regular markers), the kids each got hibiscus and honu designs, and my husband got a whale. They all turned out well and really lifted our spirits. If you're interested, I recommend lining up early since it's popular.
We were a group of six, and although there were still empty tables next to the stage, we were seated next to a couple who were already there (behind them). It was a bit disappointing not to be right up against the stage, but I suppose the empty tables were reserved for larger groups, so it couldn't be helped (one table was for ten people, and we ended up sitting with eight—my group of six and the couple).
I was happy to wear the fresh flower lei the whole time, but other members kept asking, "Can I take it off?" and "It's cold," and ended up removing theirs, which felt a bit wasteful (laughs). However, despite using time elsewhere right up until the show started, we were able to enjoy the performance very close to the stage, so I don't regret choosing the premium seats.
Each person received two free drink tickets, but the selection of free drinks was limited (only alcoholic Mai Tai or soft drinks like tropical fruit juice), and since the kids didn't like the juice, everyone ended up not using their tickets and left them unused (there was delicious free water on the table, which we enjoyed). I wish there had been a few more options.
I brought sunglasses as it was suggested, but I didn't need them (in mid-October). As time went on, it got a bit chilly, so I think having a light jacket would be good.
After the show, we exited the venue and were able to take pictures with the dancers in the hallway, which lifted our spirits again (were we being a bit starstruck?). We left feeling great.
時間に余裕があまりなくて年配から子供までの構成だったのでこちらを選びました。
お料理も殆ど全種類取りましたが全て普通に美味しく、ダンス等の内容からも選んで良かったと思います。(小学校低学年の男の子はショーの途中、段々とつまらなさそうにし始めましたが、最後のファイアーダンスで目がパッチリ。すごーい!と、食い入るように見ていました。)
レンタカーで行き、敷地に入って割とすぐ右手にある建物がパーキングだったので入庫、その建物がミッド・パシフィック・コンファレンス・センターだという事に気づき、車を降りてすぐ近くのエレベーターに乗ってそのまま上階へ、とても簡単に会場入りできました。(駐車券は、会場内の薄いグリーンのアロハ制服の人に渡すと、機械にとおして無料のスタンプを押してくれました)
タトゥー体験(普通の油性ペンで描いてましたが)は、子供がそれぞれハイビスカスとホヌ、夫がクジラを書いてもらい、いずれも上手で気分が盛り上がりました。やりたい方は、人気なので早めに並ぶと良いと思います。
席は、当方6名で、まだ舞台脇に空きテーブル席があったのですが、既に着席していた白人のご夫婦の隣(後ろ)に案内され、舞台かぶりつきではなく少々残念でしたが、空テーブルはもっと大人数のグループ用にあけていたのでしょう、仕方なかったかな(1テーブル10名用で、私たちのテーブルは結局8名(白人ご夫婦と当方6名)で座りました)
生花のレイは、私は嬉しくずっとつけていましたが、他のメンバーは「とっていい?」「冷たい」と次々に外してしまい、ちょっともったいない感が(笑)
でも、開演の割とギリギリまで他で時間を使ったにもかかわらず舞台のすぐ近くでショーを楽しめたので、プレミアムシートに後悔はしていません。
飲み物は一人2枚のフリードリンク券がついていましたが、フリーの飲み物の種類が少なく(アルコール・マイタイか、ソフトドリンク・トロピカルフルーツ味ジュースの2種類)子供の好みのジュースではなかった事もあって全員おかわりせず券を余らせ(テーブルに無料の美味しいお水があり、それを頂きました)種類がもう少しあったらなと思いました。
持って行った方が良い物にサングラスと書いてあったので持っていきましたが、必要なかったです(10月中旬)時間が経つと少し肌寒くなってきたので、薄い上着があると良いと思いました。
ショー終了後、会場を出て廊下で踊り手さんと写真が撮れて、また気分が盛り上がり(ミーハー?)気持ち良く帰途につきました。

The welcome bus arrived before the scheduled time, and one of our companions seemed to be running late. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a welcome drink, and since the legal drinking age in Hawaii is 21, the two companions were asked to show their passports (they looked young). We were welcomed with shell leis. We could enjoy various activities until sunset, but the most unique for me was climbing the palm trees. The sunset was very beautiful. We also received two drink vouchers, which was enough for me. The meal was a standard course but delicious. The Polynesian show was very impressive and fulfilling. The guide's talk on the bus to and from the venue was all in English, so I think it's great for those who want to study English... I understood some parts. I learned about the origin of the name ABC Mart and the meaning of 'ohana'. I believe we spent our evening to night time meaningfully.
迎えのバスは、時間前に来ており、私たちの仲間の方が遅れそうでした。着いてから、まず、ウエルカムドリンクで迎えられ、ハワイでは、飲酒できるのが21歳以上ということで、連れの二人は、パスポートの提示を求められました。(若く見られました。)貝のレイで歓迎されました。夕日が沈む前まで、いろいろなアクティビティを楽しむことができるのですが、ヤシの木上りが私には一番珍しかったです。
有日が沈むところは、とても綺麗でした。ドリンク券も2枚付いていて、私には十分でした。
食事もスタンダードコースでしたが、美味しかったです。ポリネシアのショーもとても見ごたえがあり、充実していました。行き帰りのバスの中のガイドさんのお話は全て英語なので、英語を勉強したい方には良いと思います。・・・時々わかりました。ABCマートの名前の由来、オハナの意味など、勉強することができました。夕方から夜にかけての時間を有意義に過ごせたと思います。

The Japanese tour guide was kind and pleasant, making it easy to explore. I was impressed when I saw the Hitachi commercial "What Tree, What Tree," and then we went to see turtles, but unfortunately, there were none, which was a bit disappointing. However, when we went to see the sunset in Hawaii, I was moved to see the beautiful sunset and 5 to 6 turtles. I've seen various night views in Japan, but the night views in Hawaii were also wonderful. There was a spot on the way back where the lights from the oncoming traffic were incredibly beautiful; it's something that leaves a lasting impression when you see it.
日本人ツアーガイドの方が親切で感じよく見て回る事ができました。
日立のコマーシャル「この木、何の木」を見て「おーと感激し」その後亀を見に行ったのですが、残念ながらいなくて少し残念感があったのですが、ハワイの夕日を見に行くと夕焼けと亀が5~6頭居て感動しました、日本でも色々夜景を見てきましたがハワイで夜景もすばらしい物がありました。帰りの対向車線からの車のライトがものすごく綺麗な所がありました、一回見て見ると感激します。

This was my second trip to Hawaii, but since my last visit focused on marine sports and shopping, I wanted to do some sightseeing this time! I wanted to experience Hawaiian culture, so I participated in an event that was within walking distance from our hotel.
The show was very enjoyable, and the host, who was from Hawaii, had great energy and really got everyone excited. The singing was excellent! There were many Japanese tourists, but there were also a lot of foreigners, which made it very interesting. I was so captivated that the time flew by, and before I knew it, it was over! The fire dance was very impressive and worth watching! I think this is something unique that you can't see in Japan.
If I could wish for something, I would like the main showtime to be longer. Also, the buffet ended after just one round, so I would have been very satisfied if it had been a style where you could go back for more. I didn't even get to the dessert...
ハワイ旅行は2度目でしたが、前回はマリンスポーツ&ショッピングが主でしたので今回は観光をしよう!ということで、ハワイの文化に触れたいと思い、私たちの宿泊ホテルからも徒歩圏内でしたので参加しました。
ショーはとても楽しく、進行の方もハワイの方なのでノリも良くとても盛り上がっていました。歌もとっても上手☆日本人の観光客は多いですが、外国の方も多く見ていてとってもおもしろいです。見入ってしまうのであっと言う間に終りが来てしまいました!フ ァイヤーダンス、とっても迫力あって見甲斐があります!これは日本では見れない外国ならではだと思います。
少し欲を言えば、メインのショータイムの時間がもっと増えたらなと思います。
また、ビュッフェも一回りしたらおしまいでしたので、何度も取りにいけるスタイルだと大満足です。デザートまでたどり着けませんでした。。。

From the pickup, I was addressed by my personal name, and at every activity, a reserved seat with my name was prepared for me; it was a luxurious course. The guide, Kala, was a native Hawaiian who could speak Japanese. Although it was supposed to be a Japanese course, once he realized I understood English, we mostly conducted the tour in English.

I had a great experience!
During the bus drive to PCC there is a tour guide who is really good on entertaining the crowd while giving important information about Hawaii culture. As you arrive there you are greeted by the employees while checking-in.
After lunch (i've purchased a nice BBQ buffet) I started my tour, the guide was very friendly and took us to each village and we had the chance to participate of many cultural activities.
If you were not able to see all the presentations, don't worry, you can have a small demonstration of each Village during the Canoe Pageant.
If you have time, please check the Hawaiian Journey Theater, you will watch a beautiful movie about Hawaii. I was impressed by the size of the theater. There's also a Tram Tour around Laie town and you can visit the Temple.
By 5pm it starts the Dinner Luau. There is a lot of different options, and they were all delicious! After dinner there's the beautiful show "Ha: Breath of Life". It's a wonderful production!

We participated in the evening for our honeymoon. I chose the deluxe course because I had heard great reviews about the food. Perhaps I had high expectations, but there weren't that many dishes, and the food wasn't surprisingly delicious... However, there were items like unlimited crab and roast beef, which are not something you can easily find, so I was quite satisfied. It was also fun to try local dishes from each island.
The show was about an hour and a half long, with a storyline that made me tear up from the beginning. My husband was in tears too, haha. The fire dance was especially moving!
On the bus ride there, a student acted as our guide and shared various stories, so we were never bored. It was a bit far from Waikiki, but it felt like a little trip. The excellent service was impressive, just like in Japan.
Overall, I felt the price, including transportation, meals, and the show, was a bit high. I would be happier if it were a little cheaper.
ハネムーンにて、夜から参加しました。デラックスコースは料理が美味しいと口コミがあったので、デラックスにしました!期待しすぎたせいか、品数もそれほど多くなく、料理は驚くほど美味しいというわけではありませんでした…しかしカニやローストビーフ食べ放題など、なかなか食べられない物がありまぁ満足です。各島の郷土料理などもあり楽しかったです。
ショーは約1時間半たっぷりの内容で、ストーリーになっており序盤からウルウルしてしまいました。旦那も号泣してました笑
ファイヤーダンスは特に感動です!
行きのバスでは、学生がガイドとして、ずっと様々な話をしてくださり、飽きなかったです。ワイキキから少し遠いですが小旅行みたいでした。日本のような素晴らしい接客が印象的でした。

My husband, myself, and our two children (ages 4 and 2) participated, along with a total of 8 people including my husband's parents and his brother and sister-in-law. Since half of us were first-timers to Hawaii, we considered the Polynesian Cultural Center, but we thought it might be tough for the kids to stay out late watching the final show and then return to the hotel close to midnight. Staying at the Hilton was also a deciding factor.
The PDF for the meeting point indicated that it was the chapel, but currently, we gather directly at the venue. If possible, it would be great to correct this to avoid confusion for those who come later.
Upon arriving at the venue, we were given shell necklaces and fresh flower leis (only for the Golden Circle) to wear, and we took commemorative photos with the dancers. It cost $20, and although it felt a bit large, the photos turned out so well that I wondered if they had been edited (laughs). They even came to show us on an iPad.
Once seated, we were served welcome drinks, including Mai Tais (non-alcoholic options are available). I don't think the alcohol was very strong. The admission ticket included two drink vouchers, and additional orders could be placed for about $12. However, the cocktails felt a bit plain without flowers or fruits, so I was fine with just two. The food was okay, but there seemed to be too many types of meat. The fruits were popular and ran out quickly. The cake was, as expected, very sweet (laughs). Those in the Golden Circle were allowed to line up first to get their servings.
The show was in a much smaller venue than the Cultural Center, which allowed us to see everything up close, and we were very satisfied. During the final fire show, I could really feel the heat when the flames from the dancers' torches passed nearby. Afterward, the dancers were in the hallway and took photos with us. I was surprised to see that many of them were quite short (they seemed taller on stage).
We went on the last day, and since the show ended at 8:30 PM, those with early flights on the day of departure can still do some last-minute shopping in Waikiki! I highly recommend it!

Since I didn't have much time, I decided to go to a Polynesian show in the city on my last day in Hawaii. The fire show was very impressive, and the hula dancers were all beautiful, which was great.
時間がないので街中でポリネシアンショーと思いハワイ最終日に行かせていただきました。ファイアーショーはとても迫力ありフラは綺麗な方ばかりでよかったですよ。

I splurged on a premium seat.
I was seated in the front row center and enjoyed the show.
However, there were many people from other countries,
and I couldn't say that the conversation flowed with the Americans and Australians at my table.
(It's probably because I can't speak English.)
The luau was wonderful, especially the final fire dance, which was spectacular.
The food was just okay.
I'm glad I decided to participate.
奮発してプレミア席にしました。
中央最前列の席となり、ショーを楽しめました。
ただし、他国からの方も多く、
自分はアメリカ国内の方、オーストラリアからの方と同じテーブルで、
会話は弾んだと言えませんでした。
(自分が英語が話せないのでしょうがないですが)
ルアウは素晴らしく、とくにラストのファイアーダンスは圧巻でした。
料理はまあまあでした。
思い切って参加できてよかったです。
