Aloha Festivals 2009 Celebrates "Hula - Let the Story be Told"

As fall approaches it's time for Aloha Festivals, Hawaii's annual celebration of Hawaiian culture, integrating the traditions and cultures of the Islands through music, dance, cuisine and art. This year's Festival theme is Hula - Let the Story be Told.

The theme was chosen carefully and is focused on "celebrating hula and presenting Hawaii's history and culture through this unique art form."

Several of the big events include the Waikiki Ho'olaule'a (Hawaii's largest block party) and the always beautiful annual Aloha Festivals Floral Parade.

If you plan on being on O'ahu in September, be sure to take in some of the Aloha Festivals events. Find out all about them in our feature on Aloha Festivals 2009.
