Polynesian Cultural Center”So many things to do.”

The Polynesian Cultural Center in Laie, Hawaii, is a living museum that celebrates the rich traditions of Polynesia. Spanning 42 acres, this cultural wonderland invites visitors to explore six authentically recreated villages representing Hawaii, Fiji, Samoa, Tahiti, Tonga, and Aotearoa (New Zealand). Each village offers hands-on activities, demonstrations, and opportunities to engage with native hosts, allowing guests to gain deep insights into Polynesian customs, arts, and daily life. The center’s crown jewel is the evening show ‘Hā: Breath of Life,’ a spellbinding performance featuring over 100 Polynesian natives showcasing music, dance, and storytelling. Visitors can also enjoy a scenic canoe ride, witness the thrilling Samoan fire knife dance, or indulge in a traditional Luau feast. With its commitment to cultural preservation and education, the Polynesian Cultural Center offers an unparalleled, immersive experience that transports guests to the heart of the South Pacific.
