Summer fun at Wailuku First Friday, June 6

Celebrate the start of summer in the heart of historic Wailuku Town at Wailuku First Friday on Friday, June 6, 2025, from 6 to 9 p.m. This month’s free, family-friendly street festival promises a lively mix of music, culture, food and community connection.

The Market Street Stage will come alive with the award-winning voice of Cody Pueo Pata from 6-7:30 p.m., followed by the sweet island sounds of Maui Jam from 7:45-9 p.m. Just a short walk away, DJZ will be spinning your favorite beats all night long inside the Wailuku Garage.

A special highlight of the evening at 7:30 p.m. will be a 3-song teaser performance by cast members from Maui OnStage’s upcoming summer production of “Come From Away”—a moving, must-see Broadway musical coming soon to the Historic Iao Theater.

Don’t miss the Canoe Crop Corner, a cultural and culinary showcase presented by the Maui Visitors & Convention Bureau. This unique experience features free tastings and cultural demonstrations, with June’s spotlight on Chef Alvin Savella of Coco Deck Lahaina and U‘i Kahue of Maui Grown 808.
