Ka Makana Ali‘i Celebrates Second Birthday with Fireworks, Gift with Purchase, Sales & Entertainment All Weekend Long

KAPOLEI, HI (October 12, 2018) – Ka Makana Ali‘i is celebrating its second birthday with fireworks, a gift with purchase, fashion shows, sales, giveaways, entertainment and more — all weekend long! The birthday celebration kicks off on Friday, October 19 and continues through Sunday, October 21. The three-day event welcomes Hawaii’s favorite entertainers Makaha Sons, Kimié Miner and Yoza in Center Court, along with the American Renaissance Academy.

“It’s been an amazing two years for us at the Center for West O‘ahu and we can’t wait for all that the future holds,” said Stephanie England, general manager at Ka Makana Ali‘i. “We have a lot to look forward to with the opening of The Grove next year, and we’re excited to celebrate with the community that has embraced us as their gathering place.”

Fireworks are a rare sight in Kapolei. Bring the ‘ohana on Saturday for specialized keiki menus at eateries like California Pizza Kitchen, Rock ‘N Fun, Da Cove and more! Then, reserve your spot on the lawn before the show starts at 8 p.m. (mats are ok, no chairs or coolers)! Come early to see traditional Polynesian fire dancers light up the Satellite Stage in the Macy’s wing at 7 p.m. You won’t want to miss the entertainment all weekend long!

For all those who love fall fashion, don’t miss the fashion shows presented by Ka Makana Ali‘i retailers! They start Saturday afternoon at the top of the hour — noon, 1 p.m. and 2 p.m. Check out chic trends, popular accessories and must-have pieces — all available at Ka Makana Ali‘i.

The Center is also hosting a Taste of Ka Makana Ali‘i event on Sunday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. in Center Court, in conjunction with the Farmers Market. Enjoy free samples from Ka Makana Ali‘i eateries, entertainment and giveaways in Center Court, along with free birthday cake and a special birthday photo booth between Thinker Things and Kabana by Koko & Palenki.

Inspired by the Japanese New Year’s Day tradition of “fukubukuro,” shoppers can visit participating retailers throughout the birthday weekend and pick up a Royal Gift Bag filled with merchandise at a discounted price, up to 50 percent off all weekend long.

In addition to sales throughout the Center, shoppers can take advantage of a special gift with purchase. Spend $150 or more at any retailer or eatery and receive a $10 Ka Makana Ali‘i gift card. Shoppers can redeem their same-day receipts at the Redemption Center between Thinker Things and Kabana by Koko and Palenki. And throughout the birthday weekend, random shoppers throughout the Center will be surprised with special prizes and gift cards.
