Lahaina, back to each other,
back to a place that still holds us.
|
The Lahaina Homecoming is a three-day gathering rooted in reconnection, remembrance, and rebuilding. Taking place July 17–19, 2026, this event is about bringing people back—back to Lahaina.
The Lahaina Homecoming is the brainchild of the Maui Economic Recovery Commission (Maui ERC) Healing Journey Team, created from deep listening, lived experience, and community need. The idea grew from ongoing healing work with Lahaina families and a shared understanding that coming home—together—is an essential part of recovery. This gathering reflects Maui ERC’s commitment to care that is trauma-informed, culturally grounded, and led by the community itself. More than a festival, the Lahaina Homecoming is a space to heal together, to honor what was lost, and to invest in what comes next. It centers on Lahaina's people, stories, culture, and future. |
