The Merrie Monarch Festival is a week-long Hawaiian cultural festival that takes place annually in Hilo, Hawaii. It honors King David Kalakaua, who was called the "Merrie Monarch" for his patronage of the arts and is credited with restoring many Hawaiian cultural traditions during his reign, including the hula. Many hālau hula (schools), including some from the U.S. mainland and some international performers, attend the festival each year to participate in exhibitions and competitions. The festival has received worldwide attention and is considered the most prestigious of all hula contests. This year's Merrie Monarch Festival features a Hula competition between 18 hālau hula (schools). To show our aloha and to share in the spirit of the Merrie Monarch festival, Aloha Outlet is offering a $100 Aloha Outlet gift card to one person who guesses the winner of the 2023 Merrie Monarch Festival.
