Cirque Hawaii
Awe-inspiring acrobats in colorful costumes twirl and whirl above us performing aerial calisthenics and dance routines choreographed to soulful music. These performers come from all over the world to showcase their humor, balance, strength and agility in beautiful surroundings to tourists in Honolulu who also arrive from different parts of the world. Clowns, contortionists, incredible dancers and trapeze artists complete the ensemble.
Germaine's Luaus
Luaus are Hawaiian feasts where pigs are roasted and the locals dance and sing to entertain honored guests. Luaus are conducted regularly in many of the islands and beaches in Hawaii , but the most famous one in Honolulu is Germaine's Luau in Waikiki .
In a secluded part of a private beach, tourists are first mesmerized by the sound of conch shells and treated to a beautiful sunset. While the travelers revel in the hospitality of this paradise island, beautiful performers including combinations of beautiful women, men and children display the traditional dances to the accompaniment of drums and hand held torches. They also teach the tourists how to sway in a sexy way wearing the hula skirts and flowers in their hair. Polynesian dancers also perform on stage mesmerizing tourists with their quick agility. Ancient legends are played out by various actors to the accompaniment of light and sound effects that take us back to earlier times and cultures.
The entertaining Hawaiian drums and music adds a heightened sense of excitement to these ceremonies. This program is also accompanied by a grand buffet of roasted pig, fish preparations and many dishes of fresh salads and vegetables that grow amazingly well in Hawaiian soil.
Other Luaus include the Paradise Cove Luau which is held on a 12-acre beach close to Barber's Point and The Polynesian Cultural Center Ali'i Luau that is held on Oahu's North Shore . Also, the Royal Hawaiian Hotel on Waikiki beach holds a Royal Luau on Monday evenings.
