The annual Parade of Poke gathers poke spots from across the island for a late afternoon filled with delicious, one-of-a-kind poke creations, food trucks, desserts and much more. The best part? Admission is free!
Veteran poke establishments and fresh faces are both competing for the coveted King of Poke Fest title, and the excitement has even inspired non-poke specialists to join in by crafting inventive poke dishes of their own.
Come to enjoy your favorite poke vendor or experience new flavors. Bring the whole ʻohana for fun keiki activities, live music by Trishnālei & the Situationships, a performance by Hanalani Schoolsʻ hālau, and entertainment all evening!
