Merrie Monarch Hula Festival

The 46th Annual Merrie Monarch Festival was held this weekend in Hilo, Hawaii. A three day hula competition with live television coverage for six hours each night. All hula photos shown here are from the great KITV television coverage. (I snapped them off the tele). Do a Google image search for better photos or search for DVD sales of the event. Plan at least a year ahead if you wish to attend the Festival or get lodging in Hilo during that time.
