Info

PCC's exciting authentic Hawaiian luau. Tasty Hawaiian foods, great entertainment, beautiful gardens, waterfalls, imu ceremony, and more the Ali'i Luau is considered the island's most authentic luau. The secluded luau site includes a picturesque tropical lagoon, a 15-foot high waterfall and "imu" (the Hawaiian word for underground oven) in which the luau pig is baked. Though luau guests enjoy the breezy open-air setting of a Polynesian-style hut, the dining room seats more than 500 guests in comfort, even if it's raining outside. The luau experience begins with each guest being greeted with a shell lei. Before the dinner program begins, guests gather at the imu pit to see the roast pig lifted off the steaming rocks of the underground oven. The blowing of a conch shell announces the arrival of Hawaiian royalty, the Ali'i court. Ali'i were believed to be descendants of heavenly beings whose responsibility was to manage the affairs of the land and people on behalf of the gods.

The all-Hawaiian show begins with hula kahiko, or ancient dances, that tell stories of old Hawai'i, starting with the birth of King Kamehameha who unified the islands. Women's, men's and children's hula dances take guests on a nostalgic tour of Hawaiian musical styles, including songs of the Thirties and Forties and the classic sounds of the Hawaiian steel guitar. Audience participation is an integral part of the program, with guests called on to help sing "Pearly Shells" and other favorites.

Doors open at 5:00 PM and the program begins at 5:30 PM. The luau wraps up by 7PM, leaving guests enough time to do some shopping before the night show. They leave the Ali'i Luau with a warm feeling that comes from experiencing the food, flavor and fun of old and new Hawai'i.
