Welcome to The Queen’s Aloha Lūʻau, a place where the spirit of Hawai’i comes alive with the traditional dances of the award-winning group, Hālau I Ka Wēkiu, and the rhythmic sounds of Nā Kumu Hula Karl Veto Baker and Michael Lanakila Casupang. Located in the peaceful surroundings of Keonaonalani, our lūʻau offers a genuine experience of Hawaiian culture. Here, every gathering is a chance to delve into the rich heritage of our islands in a warm and friendly setting. Keonaonalani is the name of our home. The name comes from Kumu Veto’s great grandmother, Keonaona, who was a lady in waiting for Hawaiʻi’s last reigning monarch, Queen Liliʻuokalani. Lani means heavenly or Royal status which is our connection to Liliʻuokalani. We invite you to Keonaonalani to celebrate, enjoy, and honor our Queen Liliʻuokalani at The Queen’s Aloha Lūʻau.

Located just a few steps from the Iolani Palace, this classic medieval fortress was originally built in 1871 on the grounds of where the Hawaii State Capitol Building is. Halekoa (as it is historically called) was the home of the Royal Guard of the Hawaiian Kingdom until the overthrow in 1893. In the post monarchy years, it was the headquarters of the Hawaii National Guard. It also served as an annex for government offices and disaster shelters. In 1965, the building was moved stone by stone to the Palace grounds. Today, the building is home to the offices for the Friends of Iolani Palace, a gift shop, visitors and ticket office of the Palace Grounds.
