Old Lahaina Luau

(4.8)
per person $220
Why We Love It -  This is the most popular luau on Maui. Typically sold out several weeks in advance. If there are no available dates, we recommend the Feast at Lele which is also one of our favorite luaus located right down the street.
COVID Update -  We are open! Contactless payment and checkin, outdoor open air seating, private tables, and food plated and delivered to your table are the major safety changes. Masks are required when not seated. Traditional Mats are available for a party of 4 or more. Currently we are sold out until December for Traditional Mats.

Enjoy a beautiful night of Hawaiian music, dance, food, and entertainment, oceanfront, under the stars!


The only luau on Maui showcasing strictly Hawaiian music, dance, and food. Enjoy learning about Hawaiian history and culture along the ocean's edge. At sunset, the evening's main entertainment begins. Our award-winning production tells the story of the Hawaiians, beginning with the history of the Polynesian migration, then to the ancient Hawaiian Hula, followed by the evolution of a more contemporary style Hula.

“The Old Lahaina Luau has reinvented itself authentically in a genre rife with cliché. At sunset, guests sit at tables or on lauhala fiber mats on the ground in front of a grass-mound stage. The program offers intelligent narration and excellent ancient hula. The food is authentic Hawaiian and delicious.”

Activity Maui tip: Traditional seating is a great option for kids! The grass next to the table is perfect for them to dance along and also easy for them to stretch out for a nap. Note that due to COVID, preference is given to larger reservations (4 or more) since these tables can accommodate 8 guests and are no longer shared.
