Fairmont Kea Lani invites the Maui community, guests, and friends of the resort to celebrate the holiday season at its 34th Annual Tree Lighting Ceremony on Friday, November 28, 2025 at 5:00pm. Held in the Palm Court just outside of Kō Restaurant, this cherished tradition will illuminate one of the largest Christmas trees in the state – featuring more than 23,000 sparkling lights – and welcome the season with music, cultural performances, and festive cheer.
This year’s celebration also includes the unveiling of a spectacular gingerbread voyaging canoe created by the resort’s pastry team, the debut of Fairmont Kea Lani’s weekly Festive Night Markets, and the official kickoff of the resort’s 12th Annual Tree of Hope Campaign benefitting the Maui Food Bank.
Guests are invited to enjoy an evening of festive entertainment, cultural performances, and complimentary holiday treats, culminating in the traditional lighting of the iconic Fairmont Kea Lani Christmas tree. The program features live music by Wailau Ryder, Marja Lehua, and Pi‘ilani Arias, followed by a hula showcase from Hālau Nā Lei Kaumaka O Uka under the direction of Kumu Hula Napua Siva.
