Aloha!

The first annual Kona Steel Guitar Festival is coming to the Outrigger Kona Resort and Spa in 2023 in Keauhou. Keauhou, Hawai‘i is located in the Kona, Hawai‘i area of Hawai‘i Island.

The Kona Steel Guitar Festival will bring the Hawaiian steel guitar experience to Keauhou, about a half-hour from the Kona airport. The festival will also extend that experience to the newly-relocated Aloha Music Camp participants who may have previously enjoyed that experience when the Camp was held on Kaua‘i. As in prior years, the Kona Steel Guitar Festival will be presented in the days preceding the Aloha Music Camp.

HIMELE plans to continue the Kaua‘i Steel Guitar Festival as well as the Hawai‘i Island Steel Guitar Experience at Mauna Lani.

Please check back for further information as the Kona festival is developed.
