REGISTRATION CLOSED

This year’s event theme, "Light the Way," reflects our mission to spread Kukui (light) by helping people share their gifts and talents for good.

Nā Kukui is most known for our mission-driven music video creations that spread hope and light worldwide. Last year, we connected with over 500,000 people through our music, making our largest impact in Utah and Hawaiʻi, while also engaging more than 25 countries globally. By participating in the Makahiki Games, you support initiatives like this and help us broaden our impact on both a community and global level.

See how your involvement makes a difference by visiting our website at Nakukui.org. Check out our Music Video Creations [HERE].

Vendor Booth Details

At Makahiki, the Talent Discovery Stations (or vendor booths) is where our vendors and talent educators offer unique experiences and workshops, such as teaching painting, lei making, or providing services like free haircuts, massages, and mobility stretching.

You’ll help individuals and families share kukui (light) by discovering new talents or gently rekindling skills they’ve cherished but haven’t practiced in a while. Your participation will inspire creativity, empower attendees to embrace their potential, and encourage others to do the same.
