On September 2, the Queen Liliʻuokalani’s birthday, we invite you to join us at Kapolei Hale at the ʻUmeke Lāʻau as we commemorate the life and contributions of Her Majesty Queen Liliʻuokalani and officially launch Hawaiian History Month 2025. We celebrate the signing of Act 167 on June 3, 2025, designating September as Hawaiian History Month in the State of Hawaiʻi. This measure honors the enduring legacy of Queen Liliʻuokalani and recognizes the many contributions of the Native Hawaiian community to Hawaiʻi’s past, present, and future. The legislation reflects decades of community-driven education, cultural observances, and advocacy efforts long championed by the Hawaiʻi Ponoʻī Coalition, which was established in 2007 to educate residents and visitors on Hawaiʻi’s true history and the culture that makes these islands unique.
