The Merrie Monarch Festival is a non-profit organization that honors the legacy of King David Kalākaua, who inspired the perpetuation of our traditions, native language and arts. The week-long festival features an internationally acclaimed hula competition, an invitational Hawaiian arts fair, hula shows, and a grand parade through Hilo town. If you can't be in Hilo this year to join in on the celebration and shop from dozens of local makers, be sure to explore this collection of products from these makers & artisans who will be featured at Merrie Monarch Festival craft fairs this year!
