THE FAMOUS KODAK HULA SHOW CLOSED IN SEPTEMBER 2002

 

 

WAIKIKI HULA SHOW CLOSES AFTER A 65-YEAR RUN
What will always be known as the "Kodak Hula Show" closed in September, 2002.  
The show began in 1938 and over the next 6.5 decades, it entertained the world.

In 1999 Eastman Kodak pulled its sponsorship but the show was saved by 
Pleasant Hawaiian Holidays.  The PHH foundation couldn't keep the program going and couldn't find a new sponsor.  The host for the final program, May Akeo Brown, had been doing the show since 1938. The Honolulu Star Bulletin quoted the 74-year-young Brown as saying, "This time it's for sure, and I'm ready for it."
