Overview

The Polynesian Cultural Center is your gateway to understanding this fascinating and beautiful part of the world.

Discover the rich history and traditions of the Pacific Islands at the Polynesian Cultural Center in Oahu. Attend energetic performances, admire skilled artisans, and enjoy authentic island cuisine. It's a must-visit for anyone looking to learn more about Pacific Islander heritage.

At this must-see Hawaiian attraction, you can stroll through an authentic complex of recreated villages, enjoy hands-on activities and demonstrations, and learn about traditional dresses, cuisines, and customs.

Immerse yourself in the culture of the 1,000+ islands that make up Polynesia. At the Polynesian Cultural Center, you’ll be surrounded by the sights and smells of the Pacific as you watch islanders reenact war dances, wield fire knives, cook traditional food, and more.

Enjoy the regional culinary delights of Polynesian culture as you sample Tahitian coconut bread or 'poi,' the staple Hawaiian food made out of taro. You’ll also explore some of the traditions of the different islands like lei-making, or have a go at playing derua and making Fijian music.

Don’t miss the Rainbows of Paradise canoe pageant, Hawaii’s only water-borne show. You'll learn about Polynesian voyaging and see a fully functional 57-foot double-hulled canoe in the Hawaiian Village’s exhibit, Iosepa: Voyage of Discovery.
