After dinner, entertainment was provided by Drums of the Pacific, an authentic Polynesian dance and music ensemble. The highlight of the evening was a fire torch dance performed as the finale.
“The luau is one of the most anticipated events of the year,” said Deborah Mahrt, lifestyles director for The Buckingham. “This year’s event did not disappoint as the evening was truly reminiscent of a night on the island as we were entertained by the Polynesian dancers and dined on authentic Hawaiian dishes. A great evening was had by all.”
