#Hikariyama Torao

“Lahaina Ondo EP” honoring the Lahaina community has been released on CD and digitally. The title track, “Lahaina Ondo,” is a new bon dance song that honors the Lahaina community by recalling fond summertime memories of everyday life in Lahaina.

The Lahaina O-Bon Festival will be held on Saturday, Aug. 9, 2025, at Lahaina Jodo Mission (next to Māla Wharf). The evening will begin with live entertainment at 5 p.m., followed by Bon dancing starting at 7 p.m. This cherished event is a collaboration between three historic Lahaina Buddhist temples — Lahaina Jodo Mission, Lahaina Hongwanji, and Lahaina Shingon Mission — all of which were lost in the August 2023 fire.
