Join us for an unforgettable day of cultural exchange and celebration at the 2025 Celebrate Micronesia Festival! Now in its annual tradition, this vibrant festival brings together Micronesian voices and communities from across the Pacific for a day of music, dance, art, food, and storytelling.

Hosted in partnership with the Pacific Islands Development Program at East-West Center, the Center for Pacific Islands Studies at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, and leaders from Micronesian communities across Hawai‘i, the event honors the rich traditions and contemporary expressions of the Republic of Palau, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Guåhan (Guam), Yap, Chuuk, Pohnpei, Kosrae, Kiribati, and the Republic of the Marshall Islands.

Come and experience traditional weaving, poetry readings, contemporary fashion, cultural performances, food vendors, art displays, hands-on demos, educational booths, and a marketplace featuring local Micronesian artists and makers. Bring the whole ʻohana for a day of learning, sharing, and celebrating the stories that connect us across the Pacific.
