Kekaha 4th of July Celebration

Note: This 2011 event was canceled without notice. Please be wary for future events.
The small, western Kauai town of Kekaha will be hosting their fourth annual July 4th celebration. This all-day event begins with a morning fun run/walk at 6am. If that’s a bit too early for you, then you’ll find games, local Hawaiian entertainment and keiki rides beginning at 10am. This July 4th celebration will top off with a festive fireworks display after dark.

This year’s event will include Hawaiian craft booths and cultural demonstrations. Also, to honor the sugar cane history of this small town, a Kekaha plantation mini-museum will be on display.

You’ll find all this Kekaha fun at H.P Faye Park – across the Kekaha Neighborhood Center. (For directions, see this Google Map.) Admission is free. For more information, see this link.

There is no celebration set up in Kekaha. I’m here now and it’s a ghost town. Bummer.

There is nothing happening right now at kekaha. Very disappointed I drove out for this.

  Oh no, daniel! I’m very disappointed to hear that happened to you.
  
  The Kekaha community would have been in their fourth annual event for this year. They advertised on facebook and even the official Hawaii and Kauai visitors bureau listed their event for this year: http://www.gohawaii.com/kauai/events/internal/33011408
  
  I have no idea what happened here.
  
  I hope you were able to have an enjoyable evening despite this disappointment.
  
  Thanks for letting me know.

  Hi again daniel — we’ve been trying to figure out what happened. It appears that the Kekaha community canceled the event somewhat at “the last minute” and we weren’t informed. https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=222749667765725&id=564684351

    That’s ok, I know it’s not your fault. But can you update this post so that if the town has an event next year that people will know to be wary since it was canceled this year without notice?

      Daniel — yes, absolutely. I’ll update it immediately after responding to this comment.
      
      I’ve been bothered all day that they canceled without an announcement.
      
      Thank you again for letting me know.

      Thank you again. For what it’s worth, we’re having a fabulous time here on the island! This hasn’t affected us in the least since everything else here has been so perfect! 🙂
