The Origins of Makahiki: Honoring Tradition and Lighting the Way"
The celebration of the New Year in ancient Hawaii began with “Makahiki,” a festival that started with the appearance of the constellation Makaliʻi (Pleiades) in the night sky, usually around October. This celestial event would light the way for a season dedicated to peace, renewal, and communal harmony. The period was marked by worship, games, and cultural festivities, all in the spirit of peace and thanksgiving.
Similarly, our 2024 “Makahiki Games” draws inspiration from this tradition by celebrating community and connection, blending traditional Makahiki practices with modern day activities. Enjoy thrilling volleyball matches, talent and discovery booths, live music and entertainment, onsite food, and more!
