    Kailua Village Business Improvement District Announces the Return of Hawaiian Sunset Saturday and It’s Free! Starting on May 22 at 5:30 pm

    The Kailua Village Business Improvement District is happy to announce the return of Hawaiian Sunset Saturday and invites residents and visitors to celebrate Kona’s spectacular sunsets with beautiful Hawaiian music and hula performed by award-winning Halau Ka'eaikahelelani. 
     
    The lyrical Kona sunset has been celebrated by many a resident and visitor. People gather along the seawall to record the moment the sun dips into the sea in hopes of glimpsing that elusive green flash. Kona sunsets bring people together to enjoy each other and the wonders of nature.
     
    Starting on May 22 at 5:30 pm, Hawaiian Sunset Saturday dances its way back to its free one-hour Hawaiian hula and music performance on the grassy, natural amphitheater at Coconut Marketplace overlooking the calm waters of Kailua Bay. Even more important this year, Hawaiian Sunset Saturday presents a reason to take time out of life’s hectic schedules and enjoy the cultural and natural elements that make Kona so special. 
     
    Everyone is invited to bring a lawn chair or beach mat and enjoy the evening as the sun begins its journey over the horizon. Show Aloha safety protocols will be in place including social distancing between ohana groups and facemasks are required.  As Hawaiian Sunset Saturday comes to a close, attendees can extend the evening at one of many nearby restaurants.
     
    Additional Hawaiian Sunset Saturday 2021 dates are set for June 26, July 31 and August 28.
     
    Parking is available; coolers are not permitted. Hawaiian Sunset Saturday is presented by Kailua Village Business Improvement District with support from County of Hawaii Department of Research and Development.
