What began as a small celebration of Polynesian dance and music with Hōkūleʻa Academy has grown into a vibrant presence in the Chicago community, sharing the spirit of the islands at events all throughout the Midwest.
Over the years, our performances have sparked so much excitement and demand that we’re thrilled to announce the launch of our sister company, Nā Hōkū Entertainment — bringing professional, private, and corporate island-inspired entertainment to weddings, parties, and special events. Together, Hōkūleʻa Academy and Nā Hōkū continue to share the beauty, rhythm, and joy of Polynesian culture with audiences everywhere.
