A traditional Hawaiian lei ceremony often takes place after a graduation ceremony. In Hawaii, it is customary for family and friends to present graduates with leis as a way of celebrating their achievement. What Happens During a Lei Ceremony? After the formal graduation ceremony, graduates typically gather in a designated area where their loved ones place leis around their necks. It’s common to see graduates covered in multiple leis, sometimes even up to their eyes! What Does It Mean? Leis symbolize love, respect, congratulations, and good luck. The tradition reflects the Hawaiian spirit of aloha—a deep sense of love, connection, and appreciation. Please be prompt we will be leaving at 12:15pm with the transportation shuttle!!!
1:00 pm - 3:00 pm
