Kani Ka Pila - Let's Make Music!

“Kani ka pila” is a Hawaiian word informally meaning “a gathering to play music.” Cupertino Lodge 70 hosts a monthly kani ka pila open to all. The events are free for lodge members, but non-members are asked for a nominal donation. This is a fun way to meet new people, learn new songs and have a great time!

The house band, Laule’a (comprised of members Nobel Grand Ron Myres, Les Wong, Randee Chin & Jim Kabage), leads songs from Hawai’i sung in English and Hawaiian.

Participants are encouraged to play an instrument if they have one, dance hula, sing, and have a good time!

Our kani ka pila has successfully transitioned to being a hybrid event (in-person and virtual via Zoom) based on safety guidelines until we can gather again.
