Aloha! Welcome and thank you for your interest in being one of our valued vendors at this year's Kalama Heritage Festival! Your participation is much appreciated. We are excited to be given the opportunity to hold the festival again this year after the economic challenges of the pandemic, and to give the musicians and vendors an opportunity for revenue. The event is out doors and we are being very careful to abide by all the covid safety laws so that everyone stays healthy.

The Kalama Heritage Festival is a beautiful, culturally rich event that celebrates the impact on the Pacific Northwest region by the Hawaiian Kanaka (humans/workers) that were brought over by the Hudson Bay Fur Trading Company in the mid 1800’s. It honors the blending of the cultures between Kanaka and the Pacific Northwest Native Americans.

Since its inception in 2005, The Kalama Heritage Festival has been successfully accomplishing what its founders, Bill & Gloria Nahalea, had intended; to educate both the indigenous tribes and the public about the vibrant history of these two cultures and how they have become intricately intertwined, growing into a distinctive culture unto itself. The festival benefits and blesses all involved with it by giving those present a chance to experience the true aloha spirit of love and welcoming acceptance. It helps to support the vendors and performers in their livelihood and builds tourism in the Kalama community.
