Weekend Festivals


Saturday (Sept. 16), island-wide


September 14, 2006
[CULTURAL] Holidays, shmolidays! Who needs 'em when you can get just as festive at a cultural celebration or two—or like this weekend, at an all-out extravaganza of several festivals at once! First, there's the Aloha Festivals' Royal Court investiture and falsetto competition at the Ritz-Carlton Kapalua (call 268-1789, or visit www.alohafestivals.com). Then there's also the Maui Pineapple Homecoming and Festival at the Maui Pineapple Co. Cannery in Kahului (call 877-3857 or visit www.mauipineapple.com) where you can celebrate pineapple heritage with free tours, pineapple sampling, food booths, games and live music. And the 7th annual Somos Amigos Festival is happening on Market Street in Wailuku (call 249-2990), celebrating Maui's Hispanic and Portuguese communities with multi-ethnic entertainment and food. Plus, if you count the "festival" of feet joining for the round of marathons, including Maui Tacos 5K Fun Run, the Front Street Mile Race, the Maui Half Marathon and the big 36th annual 26.2 mile race that is the Maui Marathon (call 871-6441 or visit www.mauimarathon.com), you've got way too much to do this weekend to worry about that whole upcoming costume dilemma.
