What to expect
Cirque du Soleil’s Auana, its inaugural resident show in Hawai‘i, debuted on December 17, 2024, at the OUTRIGGER Waikīkī Beachcomber Hotel. The production weaves Hawaiian mo‘olelo (stories) into eight visually rich chapters, featuring acrobatics, hula, aerial acts, and live music. Highlights include portrayals of Polynesian migration, the legend of Hina through aerial hoop performance, and the myth of Māmala depicted via water-based acrobatics. Directed by Neil Dorward, with contributions from cultural experts like Dr. Aaron J. Salā and Kumu Hula Hiwa Vaughan, the show emphasizes authenticity and respect for Hawaiian culture. Performances run Wednesday through Sunday at 5:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. in a custom-designed 784-seat theater.

I attended with my 8-year-old and 4-year-old children. The price wasn't cheap, so I hesitated quite a bit and ended up buying tickets the day before, but I'm glad we went. The total duration was about 80 minutes, which was perfect for the kids, and the venue was cozy, creating an immersive experience. I believe any seat would offer a great view (I was immediately contacted by email when the seats I initially requested couldn't be arranged side-by-side, allowing me to adjust the time and location). It was a valuable experience.
breathing and beautiful… great for all ages and a must… there is no seat with a bad view .. story telling done extremely well
This show is quite new, having officially premiered in mid-December of last year. The theater space isn't large, but the performance is absolutely amazing! The stunts are spectacular, and the interludes by the emcee are consistently hilarious and side-splitting. The integration of Hawaiian elements into the show's content is truly unique, setting it apart from other Cirque du Soleil productions. It's simply awesome! 👍🏽
The venue and stage were on smaller size compared to other Cirque show, but thata did not diminish the show at all~! I really like the whole show including the history of Hawaii and the island culture, the soundtrack was really top tier, the whole show was really well done~! Excellent, kudos~!
I went with my 9-year-old child. The time flew by from beginning to end. Rather than Cirque du Soleil, the show felt more like enjoying a traditional Hawaiian show with the performers while drinking and having a good time.
The show is great. The theater is very small compared to other Cirque du Soleil shows I have been too. The check in process and getting in the theatre are very confusing because there are way too many lines. It also blends in with guests at the lobby and the bar area. The acts are great. My favorite is the roller skates act.
I had a lot of fun. There were thrilling acrobatics, comedy that everyone can enjoy, and the healing music of Hawaii. If you go to Hawaii, I highly recommend seeing it. I recommend going to the theater a little early to enjoy the atmosphere.
Although the venue and stage were small, the performance was breathtaking. I highly recommend seeing it if you visit Honolulu. The audience-interactive performance was so interesting and enjoyable that I'd love to go again.
Great value for the price! Just a heads up, you'll need to exchange the QR code voucher you receive for a physical ticket; you can't enter directly with the QR code.
This is different from the Cirque du Soleil shows in Japan. It wasn't just watching, but a fun show that involved the audience as well.
