THIS YEAR’S THEME

Celebrating Wellness and Heritage through Malunggay

Moringa, known as malunggay in Tagalog and marunggay in Ilokano is a treasured plant in Filipino gardens and culture.

Through this theme, we aim to create a cultural experience that honors Filipino customs while resonating with Hawaiʻi's connection to ʻāina and sustainability. From event decorations and engaging activities to unique offerings by our vendors, guests can look forward to discovering the history, health benefits, and culinary uses of this remarkable plant.
