Tahitian Dance and Drumming Competition on Kauai

Feel the rhythm of Tahitian dance at Kappa Beach Park when you stay at our Kauai vacation rentals in August. Located halfway between Poipu Beach and Princeville Resort, the park is where the Tahitian Dance and Drumming Competition will be held the weekend of August 4-5, 2018.

Featuring traditional and contemporary dance with solo and group events, the 17th annual Heiva I Kauai Iorana Tahiti is fun for everyone. Gates are open from 9am to 4pm. Daily admission is $7 with free entry to children 12 and under.

Tip: For more things to do on Kauai, see our recommended list of Kauai activities.

Difference Between Tahitian dance and Hula dance.

Expect to see a faster pace with Tahitian dance. Hula dance can also move fast but is considered more graceful and includes additional hand movement in storytelling. All ages will enjoy the vibrant costumes of Tahitian dance, live music and drumming.

Tahitian Dance and Drumming Competition Details.

Saturday, August 4: Live music and drumming with solo dance competition.
Sunday, August 5: Group dance and drumming competition.

Daily Events: Professional Tahitian group dance and fire knife exhibitions are offered daily. Also included is a silent auction and cultural demonstrations by Pacific Island artists.

See Niihau shell jewelry making, lauhala weaveing, wood carving and more. Island foods and Polynesian crafts will be sold with a special emphasis on Tahitian products.

Heiva I Kauai Ia Orana Tahiti was established in 2000.

Visit Heivai Kauai online at http://heivaikauai.com

Its mission is to perpetuate and promote authentic Tahitian cultural tradition in Hawaii. This grass roots non-profit festival is supported by Hawaii Tourism Authority and the County of Kauai. For ADA planning or more information, call 808-822-9447.
