Prince Lot Hula Festival presented by Moanalua Gardens Foundation

Moanalua Gardens Foundation (MGF) is a non-profit organization and has served as a vital link to preserve and protect the environment and cultural resources of Hawaii. Its mission is to “preserve and perpetuate the native culture, environment and people of Hawai`i through education and stewardship of Kamananui (Moanalua) Valley and celebration of the Prince Lot Hula Festival at Moanalua Gardens.”

Founded in 1978, the Prince Lot Hula Festival has been designated a signature cultural event by the Hawai‘i Tourism Authority. The festival allows thousands of island residents and visitors to experience the beauty and spirit of the Hawaiian culture and history.

Moanalua Gardens is a 24-acre (97,000 m²) privately owned public park in Honolulu, Hawaii. The park is the site of the Kamehameha V Cottage which used to be the home of Prince Lot Kapuāiwa, who would later become King Kamehameha V. It is also the site of the annual Prince Lot Hula Festival. 2015 marks it 38^th Annual Hula Festival, sharing the history and culture of Hawaii through Art and Music.
