Welcome all to the official site for The Royal Tribute to Hawaiʻi's Sovereign. The Royal Tribute honors Hawaii's royal heritage as we walk through the interment path of Hawaiʻi's last Monarch, Queen Liliʻuokalani. 

During the journey we will honor all eight of Hawaiʻi's ruling Monarchs while we talk of history, values, positive identity, and moving forward to uplift our community and one another.

This event is free and open to the public! We ask all who will join us to come with Aloha.  

If you would like to take an active role in the making of this event we encourage you to sign up as a volunteer!
