The Gathering of the Kings

Join us for an evening that begins under the stars dining on the beautiful grounds of the The Fairmont Orchid Hawaii. Using a fusion of both traditional Polynesian and modern dance choreography, the dancers of Island Breeze retell the story of the settlement of the Pacific. Displayed in its fullness is the mana (power) of the Ali'i (chiefs) and how each would be forever linked to the one star that guided them.
