Which Maui luau venues do not have published pricing here?

We only quote prices for tickets we sell, so every figure on this page comes from a live ticket. Other Maui venues such as Old Lahaina Luau, Maui Nui Luau and the Sheraton Kaanapali Sunset Luau are worth considering, but we do not sell their tickets and we do not hold current published rates for them. Confirm pricing directly with each venue before you compare.

Frequently asked questions

What is the average cost of a Maui luau in 2026?

The tickets we sell run from $100 to $360 per adult. Sugar Beach Sunset Luau at $100 is admission and entertainment only, while the dinner luaus we list start at $203.26 and top out at $360 for Ali'i Premium seating at Grand Wailea.

Why are Maui luaus more expensive than Oahu luaus?

Maui luaus are smaller, more culturally focused, and use Maui-sourced ingredients. The Lū'au at Grand Wailea is among the most in-demand luaus in Hawaii, which supports higher pricing.

Are Maui luau prices all-inclusive?

Most are, but not all. Myths of Maui, Huaka'i Luau and both Grand Wailea tiers include dinner, drinks and the show in the ticket, while Sugar Beach at $100 covers admission and live entertainment only. Grand Wailea rates of $300 and $360 are before 4.712 percent Hawaii state tax and a 24 percent service charge.
