Did this: Okinawan Festival 2014
The 32nd Annual Okinawan Festival at Kapiolani Park was a colorful celebration of Okinawan culture with food, music, performances, crafts and activities, education booths… and of course, andagi! The two-day event, organized annually by the Hawaii United Okinawa Association over Labor Day weekend, typically draws about 50,000 people.
