Wailele Luau is set to reopen in December 2023!
Held in the Valley Isle Terrace at the Westin Maui Resort, Wailele Polynesian Luau is set amongst tropical gardens with uncompromising views of the show. Embark on an exciting musical and cultural journey throughout the Polynesian islands. The luau show features music and dances from Hawaii, Tahiti, Samoa and New Zealand. Learn about the story of the Hawaiian fire goddess Pele. There is also a performance dedicated to Wailele, which means "waterfalls" in the Hawaiian language. The grand finale showcases Maui’s most extreme troupe of fire-knife dancers.
