You feel as if you have traveled to several countries just by watching the performances one after another on the stage of the Honolulu Festival.

Impressed by the traditional performing arts of each country and region that have been carefully protected and conveyed, and also impressed by the passionate performance that they’ve been practicing for this day, the venue was full of applause and smiles.

Why don’t you go up on the stage at the next Honolulu Festival? We look forward to your participation !
