About Toa Luau - Evening Show
Spend the evening at Waimea Valley on Oahu's North Shore with cultural activities, a luau dinner and a Polynesian show surrounded by one of the island's most beautiful natural settings. Before dinner, take part in traditional demonstrations and hands-on activities that introduce customs from Hawaii and across Polynesia.
The evening performance travels through Hawaii, Tonga, New Zealand, Tahiti and Samoa with music, storytelling and dance, ending with a fire-knife finale. Same-day admission to Waimea Valley is included, so you can arrive earlier to explore the botanical gardens, historic sites and paved walking path to Waimea Falls before the luau begins.
