CELEBRATING THE 60TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE MAI-KAI AND THE 15TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE HUKILAU!
BE A PART OF TIKI HISTORY IN THE MAKING!
Mahalo for your interest in The Hukilau™! Our event would not be
possible without the support of our sponsors and partners. We set
our goal high each year to spread Aloha spirit by celebrating Tiki
culture through transportive music, Tiki cocktails, Symposiums by
Tiki Luminaries and Rum Experts plus stories from the past and the
present.
Prepare yourself for a weekend of Mid-Century Americana, when
escapism was on the corner of any major city in America – at the
local Tiki bar. The Tiki resurgence is here to stay and with an event
like The Hukilau, you’re instantly transported into a past golden age
that many of us never had the chance to experience…until now!
WHAT IS THE HUKILAU?
What is a Hukilau? A Hukilau [hoo kee lau’] is a method of fishing
in ancient villages of Hawaii. Villagers would cast a large net into
the sea, herding the fish, then slowly pulled it to shore. The feast
that followed was meant to emphasize the spirit of family and
community. Our mainland Hukilau is a metaphorical net thrown out
to the world, bringing the lovers of “Polynesian Pop” or “Tiki”culture
together for our own special celebration.
The Hukilau, known as the most authentic Tiki event in the world,
began in 2002, and has grown from a small gathering into an
international event. Drawing close to 1,200 visitors annually, the
4-day weekend takes place in the beautiful city of Fort Lauderdale,
Florida. This year’s host hotel is the historic Hyatt Regency Pier
Sixty Six, and the event will culminate at the Mai-Kai (established in
1956), the world’s most perfectly preserved mid-century Tiki palace.
2016 marks two landmark anniversaries: The Mai-Kai celebrates its
60th, and The Hukilau celebrates its 15th.
WHO ATTENDS THE HUKILAU?
We refer to the attendees of The Hukilau as our Villagers; these Tikiphiles fly in from
all over the globe for a tropical weekend where the rum flows like lava and the music
never ends! They are collectors and enthusiasts of a past golden age that many of
us never had the chance to experience. They are lovers and consumers of Tiki, Retro,
Mid Century, Pin-Up and Cocktail Culture. In the crowd, you’ll find artists, filmmakers,
bankers, attorneys, housewives and carpenters - you can’t possibly put a label on
them. They savor vacations like The Hukilau to escape into a time portal surrounded by
palm trees and friends – new and old. The Hukilau is also a top destination for awardwinning bartenders, authors, chefs, craft cocktail fans, artists and those who just love
good rum and exotic cuisine. We imbibe on creations like the Mai Tai, Navy Grog,
Shark Bite, Rum Barrel, and the dangerous Black Magic.
