I made a reservation for the night of my arrival on Oahu! We had dinner at a different restaurant beforehand. The show was so lively, in a way that you don't see in Japan, and I had a great time!
Since it's located in the center of Waikiki, I was able to go shopping while still in a festive mood. At the end of the show, we could take photos, and I took one with Michael and Celine!
One disappointing thing was that since it was close to the hotel, I opted for no transportation, but the explanation for the voucher was unclear, and I had trouble purchasing the tickets. It said "meet on-site," so I waited in front of the ticket counter, but when the time came, I ended up buying them myself. There were many Japanese people who seemed to be guides, but there was no announcement or anything. I thought there would be someone there since it said to gather, but that wasn't the case. It might be an issue of comprehension, but I wish it had been explained more clearly.
I arrived early and waited, but ended up in the back row, so I feel like there's no point in reserving through Veltra next time. The audience was about two-thirds full.
In response to the above comments, I will give the lowest rating due to the standard response. The show itself is wonderful, so I recommend it to those who are unsure!
オアフ島到着日の夜に予約!食事は別のレストランで食べてから。ショーは日本にはないかんじの盛り上がり方で、とっても楽しかったです!
ワイキキの中心部にあるため盛り上がった気分のままショッピングに行けます。ショーの最後には写真撮影もでき、マイコーとセリーヌと撮りました!
ひとつ残念だったのは、ホテルから近かったため送迎なしにしたところ、バウチャーの説明が分かりづらくチケット購入に手間取りました。
[現地集合]とあり窓口前でずっと待っていましたが時間になってしまい、自分で買いました。ガイドらしき日本人もたくさんいましたが呼びかけも何もありませんでした。集合というからには誰かいるものだと思ったのですが違ったのですね。読解力の問題かもしれませんがもっと分かりやすく記載して頂きたかったです。
せっかく早く着いて待っていたのに結局後ろの席になったため、次はベルトラで予約する意味はないかなというかんじです。客入りは3分の2くらいでした。
以上のコメントに対し、定型文での返答の為、最低評価にさせて頂きます。
ショー自体は素晴らしいものですので迷ってる方にはオススメですよ。

I thought the dynamic dance show was great. However, since photography was not allowed and there was no alcohol (beer was okay, but...), it felt pretty ordinary.
ダイナミックなダンスショーで良かったと思います。但し、写真が撮れない・お酒(ビールでOKでしたが.....)が無しなので普通にしました。

I booked the late entry since we had a cruise in the morning. We had some time to go around a few villages but we wish we booked the all day package. The show was beyond my expectation and they did a superb job putting it together. It was very dramatic and entertaining. You must visit Polynesian Cultural Center when you come to Hawaii.

It was my first experience. Since I stayed in North Shore, I went there on my own, but the show was fully booked. The story was easy to understand, and the dancing was wonderful. Being in the front row was very impressive. The ribs from the meal were delicious as well. The price was a bit high, though.
初めての体験でした。

The dance show was absolutely wonderful. Before the show, we had a buffet meal at a large dining hall and did some shopping at the stores in the park. After buying some Hawaiian-themed children's clothing, we headed to the show venue. Our seats were in the back, but we could see everything well and were impressed by the elaborate performances and the fire dancing. However, finding the car on the way back was difficult because the location was different from the initial explanation, and we couldn't find it in the light rain. We had to communicate the number to other drivers to get help.
ダンスショーはとても素晴らしかったです。ショーの前に大きな食堂でバイキング料理を食べて
パーク内のお店でショッピングをしました。ハワイらしい子ども服を買ってからショーの場所に行きました。席は後方でしたが、全体が良く見えて凝った演出や火の踊りに感激しました。
ただ、帰りの車は最初の説明と場所が異なり小雨の中見つからず大変でした。他のドライバーに番号を伝えて教えてもらいました。

On the night of our wedding in Hawaii, we went with both families! When making the reservation, I was torn between the buffet and the VIP dinner, but since it was both our wedding day and my birthday, I decided to go for the VIP dinner. The food was delicious, featuring lobster, steak, and salmon, all beautifully presented.
During the show, an Elvis impersonator came down from the stage to hug us and even gave us leis. My mother, who is from the Elvis generation, was thrilled with the lei and the hug! He also visited the second-floor seats. The performances by Elvis, Gaga, and Michael, along with the hula show, were all so much fun!
After the show, we were able to take commemorative photos with Elvis, Gaga, and Michael! I even got a signature on a photo I had purchased in advance. When I told Elvis that it was my birthday and wedding day, he congratulated me and gifted me the scarf he was wearing around his neck! Even though he was an impersonator, I felt like I had met the real deal, and it was so exciting (laughs).
It seemed like my family enjoyed it too, and it turned out to be a wonderful night! I would love to see other impersonators next time!
ハワイ挙式当日の夜に、両家家族みんなで行きました!

I was told by an acquaintance that I should definitely go, but after reading the reviews, I found mixed opinions. I was unsure which group to choose, but I went with All Day Deluxe. A student studying at a nearby university guided us brightly and very kindly! It seems that most of the people working at the facility, including those who perform in the shows, are students, but everyone was really cheerful, energetic, and friendly! By choosing the afternoon plan, I was able to see various shows, and they were all incredibly fun! There are various opinions about the food, but I found it delicious! Those who signed up for Deluxe before the evening show were able to see behind the scenes, and I felt a level of professionalism that was hard to believe they were students!
The seating is arranged so that everyone can see from any spot. It seems that it rarely gets fully booked. Although I chose Deluxe, I made the reservation just two days in advance, so I ended up sitting towards the back. I recommend making an early reservation! Even for Standard, if you book early, you should be able to get a seat towards the front, which would make it easier to see!
Indeed, the price is somewhat high, but I heard that the money we pay goes towards scholarships for the working students, and since the afternoon shows are enjoyable, I recommend the afternoon plan for those who are going in the future!
知り合いから是非行ったほうがいいと言われていたのですが、口コミを読むと賛否両論。
どのグループにするか悩みましたがオールデイデラックスに。近くの大学で勉強してる子が明るくそしてとても親切にガイドをしてくれました!ショーに出る子達も含めて施設で働いてる人のほとんどが学生さんらしいのですが、皆さん本当に明るくて元気で親切でした!昼からのプランにすると色々なショーも見れるのですが、どれも凄くたのしかったです!ご飯も色々書かれていますが私には美味しく感じました!夜のショーの前にデラックスで申し込んだ人は舞台裏を見せて貰えるのですが、学生さんとは思えないくらいプロ意識を感じました!
席は何処からでも見えるようになってます。満席になることはあまりないそうです。デラックスにしたものの予約したのが2日前でしたのでデラックスの中でも後ろのほうでした。早めの予約をオススメします!スタンダードでも早めに予約すれば、その中でも前の方だと思うので見やすいと思いますよ!
確かに値段はそこそこしますが、私達が支払うお金は働いてる学生さんたちの奨学金として使われるそうですし、昼のショーも楽しいのでこれから行く方には昼からのをオススメします!

I opted for the Hawaiian buffet dinner and show. The tables for eight are set up outside on the 4th floor of the Royal Hawaiian Center, so you will be seated with others. While enjoying a complimentary Mai Tai, I watched the hula performance by four dancers, and after a while, the buffet began. Well, it was just an ordinary buffet. At $54, I personally recommend dining at a restaurant within the Royal Hawaiian Center and participating in just the show.
The main show was enjoyable. The performances of Lady Gaga and Michael Jackson, even as impersonations, were fantastic. Personally, I found the hula and Tahitian dance more impressive than the impersonations. Since it's a theater, the sound system is good, allowing for a powerful hula performance.
The theater is air-conditioned, so I think it's a good idea to bring a long-sleeved cover-up.
ハワイアンビュッフェディナー&ショーにしました。
ロイヤルハワイアンセンターの4F野外に設置された8人掛けテーブルに詰めて座らせられるので相席になります。無料のマイタイを飲みながら4人のダンサーのフラを見てしばらくするとビュッフェ開始。まぁ〜普通のビュッフェです。
コレに$54となると???個人的にはロイヤルハワイアンセンター内のレストランで食事をしてショーだけのプランで参加をオススメするかな。
メインのショーは楽しかったです。
ガガ様やマイケル・ジャクソンはモノマネとは言え素晴らしいパフォーマンスでした。
個人的にはモノマネよりもフラダンスやタヒチアンダンスの方が見応えがあった。
劇場なので音響がいいので迫力があるフラが見れます。
劇場内はクーラーが効いているので長袖の羽織るものは持って行った方がいいと思います。

We were able to go get the buffet early and enjoyed both the shell lei and the fresh flower lei, which made the family very happy! We took lots of photos, and everyone had the best smiles. I even got a drawing of my favorite honu (sea turtle) done with magic, which was super exciting!
Since it was a Polynesian show, we experienced various performances like hula, Tahitian, and Maori, and we received a lot of energy from it. At the end, we also got to take photos with the handsome and beautiful dancers, which made the older members of the family very happy (laughs).
After returning home, we kept talking about how great and fun the show was; it seems to have left a lasting impression. We definitely want to participate again, and of course, in the best seats!

I was looking for an optional tour that would give me a taste of Hawaii, and I came across this one. A very kind guide came to pick us up, which made me feel at ease. I was impressed by the size of the facility and the number of stalls. I got to enjoy the pineapple ice cream at the Dole Plantation and bought a mumu as a souvenir, which made me very happy. The buffet-style meal was filled with many local dishes, and it was delicious—I even went back for seconds. The show was packed with a lot of spectators, which was overwhelming. I think it's a very popular tour. The traditional Polynesian elements were expressed in a story that was easy to understand, and I was moved by the content. The fire performances were very exciting and fun. I think I would have missed out on this experience if I hadn't participated in this tour, so I'm really glad I did. I believe everyone will enjoy it, so I highly recommend it to anyone planning to go to Hawaii!

This is a tour that includes a dinner buffet and an evening show only. A guided bus picked us up from the hotel. The guide is a Japanese exchange student who has been living in Hawaii for three years. The facility is located near the North Shore of Oahu, about an hour's drive from Waikiki. The guide was very passionate, sharing the history of the facility, experiences of life in Hawaii, and interesting facts about Hawaii during the ride, keeping the atmosphere lively with laughter.
According to the guide, the facility was created to support students, and the profits go towards scholarships and the salaries of student guides. I thought it would be great if there were similar facilities in Japan.
Before the show, we had the dinner buffet. The food was not bad, but the variety was limited, and it might be better not to have high expectations for the taste.
After the meal, at 7:30 PM, the largest evening show in Hawaii takes place in a theater that can accommodate 2,000 people. With over 100 performers on a grand stage, I was overwhelmed by the powerful performance that included Polynesian music, dance, and even fire, depicting the life of the main character.
Advice:
- During the day, there is a tour with the student guide that takes you around six villages within the facility, offering various interactive experiences. Therefore, I recommend participating in a full-day tour rather than just the night tour.
- If you want to see the evening show up close, I recommend opting for the deluxe package instead of the standard one. Also, it’s a good idea to read the brochure about the show’s synopsis before it starts to understand it better.
- Photography is not allowed during the evening show.
- There are no restrooms within the dinner buffet facility.
- After the evening show, the restrooms within the facility can get very crowded, so you can also use the restrooms at a nearby restaurant close to the bus stop outside the facility.
- The facility is closed on Sundays due to the religious practices of the Mormon Church.
ディナービュッフェとイブニングショーのみのツアーです。ホテルまでガイド付きバスが迎えに来てくれました。ガイドさんはハワイ在住3年目の日本人留学生です。施設はオアフ島の北、ノースショアに近いところにあり、ワイキキから車で1時間くらいかかります。ガイドさんはとても情熱的で、目的地着くまで、施設の歴史を教えてくれたり、ハワイの生活体験や面白いハワイ事情などを話してくれたりして、車内の笑う声が絶えませんでした。
ガイドさんの話によりますと、施設は学生支援の目的で作られ、収益は奨学金や学生ガイドさんの給料に当たるそうです。日本でもこのような施設があったらいいなと思いました。
ショーの前にディナービュッフェです。食事は悪くはないですが、種類が少なく味もあまり期待しない方が良いかもしれません。
食事の後、夜7時半から2000人も入れる劇場でハワイ最大級のイブニングショーが行われます。出演者が100名超の大きなステージで、主人公の生涯をポリネシアン音楽やダンス、更に炎も加えて大きな迫力に圧倒されました。
アドバイス
・日中は、学生ガイドさんと園内6つの村を巡るツアーがあり、色々な参加型体験が出来ますので、ナイトのみではなく、1日ツアーのご参加をお勧めします。
・イブニングショーを近くてみたいなら、スタンダードではなくデラックス以上の参加をお勧めします。また、ショーのあらすじは開演前にパンフレットを読まれ理解しておくとよいです。
・イブニングショー公演中の撮影はできません。
・ディナービュッフェ施設内にお手洗いはありません。
・イブニングショー終了後、園内のお手洗いは大変混み合いますので、園外バス停留所の近くにあるレストランのお手洗いを利用することもできます。
・モルモン教の宗教上、日曜日は休園です。
ありがとう、シャオリ!さようなら!

On December 31st, my daughter and I participated in an evening tour. We were told that it usually takes 90 minutes to get to the Polynesian Cultural Center from Waikiki, but due to New Year's Eve, there was little traffic, and we arrived in less than an hour. Along the way, thanks to our energetic and knowledgeable guide, we gained some background knowledge about Hawaii's trees, mountains, and history, which allowed us to enjoy the content of the subsequent show.
We arrived before 6:00 PM and received our tickets from the guide in front of the restaurant before parting ways. (The buffet meal ticket and the ticket for the show starting at 7:30 PM were combined, and the staff at the restaurant entrance separated the meal ticket for us.) Since it was a standard buffet, I didn't have high expectations for the food, but aside from the main menu, there was a rich selection of salads, fruits, and desserts. It was great that we could freely drink juice and coffee. As someone who loves vegetables, I found it to be a decent level compared to a $55 per person buffet at a certain hotel (excluding drinks).
The seating arrangement in the show venue was fan-shaped, making it easy to see from any seat. The fire dance was quite impressive. Although I couldn't understand the lyrics of the songs, there was an English narration, so I got the general story, and it was a wonderful show where I could experience family love and the breath of life that flows through Hawaii.
12/31に娘と二人で夕方出発のツアーに参加しました。ポリネシア文化センターまでワイキキから通常90分かかると言われたが、大晦日の為車が少なく、一時間もしないうちに着きました。途中、元気且つ知識豊富のガイドさんのお蔭で、ハワイの木や山、そして歴史についての予備知識を備えることができ、その後のショーの内容を楽しむことができました。
18:00前に到着してレストランの前にガイドさんからチケットを受け取って解散。(ブッフェ食事券と19:30から開演するショーのチケットが一枚となっていて、レストラン入口にいる職員の方が食事券を切り離してくれる。)スタンダードの為食事の内容をあまり期待していなかったが、メインメニューを除き、サラダ、果物やデザートなどのサイトメニューは豊富でした。ジュースやコーヒーも自由に飲めてよかったです。野菜好きな私にとって後日某ホテルで55ドル/人(水以外別オーダー)のブッフェに比べても悪くないレベルです。
ショーの会場座席配置は扇型でどの席からも見やすいです。ファイヤーダンスは結構迫力ありました。歌の内容は理解できなかったが英語のナレーションがあったので大体のストーリーが分かり、家族愛とハワイに流れるbreath of life生命の息を体感できる素晴らしいショーでした。

I reserved a premium seat, but it felt like there wasn't much difference from the regular seats. In some areas, I felt that the regular seats might have had a better view. (Perhaps this was because our seats were in a corner, viewing from the side of the stage.)
As for the food, it was neither good nor bad.
Since it was nighttime, measures against the cold were necessary. There were no warm dishes or drinks, so it was quite cold, and I couldn't stand it and left midway. (The performers also seemed to be cold.)
I felt that there wasn't anything particularly noteworthy about the show itself. There was quite a bit of time from entry to the food being served (about an hour?), and it also felt like we waited a long time from the food to the start of the show. However, the staff and performers were very friendly, which was a positive aspect.
プレミアムシートにて予約しましたが、
通常の席でも大差は無い様な感じでした。場所によっては
通常席の方が見やすい所もあった様に感じました。
(自分達の席は、隅っこで舞台袖からの鑑賞だったのでその様に
感じたのかも知れません。)
食事については、可もなく不可もなく、と言った所です。
夜ですので、寒さ対策は必要です。
温かい料理や飲み物もなかったのでかなり寒く、我慢できず
途中退場してしまいました;;
(演者のみなさんも寒そうにしていました。)
ショー自体も、特筆すべき点はなかった様に思えました。
入場から料理までの時間が結構あり(小一時間程?)、また、
料理からショーが始まるまでも結構待たされた様に感じました。
しかし、スタッフや演者の方たちも非常に気さくでその点は
良かったかな、と思いました。
