Are you going to Maui for July 4th? Lucky you! Maui is shaping up to be a great place to celebrate Independence Day with a real bang! Here’s what we know so far about special July 4th fireworks and events:
July 4th Daytime:
Makawao 4th of July Parade & Rodeo – The small upcountry town of Makawao celebrates their ranching history with their annual rodeo festival. Festivities begin at 9am and go through noon. The parade starts at the lower end of Baldwin Avenue, follows up Makawao Avenue, then ends at Eddie Tam Center. See this Google Map of Makawao to calculate directions. For more information and park and ride options, see this link or call 808-572-9565.
July 4th Evening:
July 4th Concert in the Park – This free oceanfront concert will feature Hawaiian jazz and popular music with Tarvin Makia and the Manutea Nui E Danceras and the Dejavu Band. The Maui Community Band will also perform traditional July 4th holiday favorites and original medleys. (See this link as well as this one for more concert details.) The concert is scheduled to begin at 5:30pm Front Street in Lahaina. After the concert, stick around for the fireworks described below.
Lahaina July 4th FIREWORKS – Lahaina town is definitely the place to be for a huge fireworks display by the historic waterfront beginning at approximately 8pm. It’s free to watch the fireworks from anywhere along the Lahaina waterfront, however, you might want to consider some of these interesting options to watch the fireworks from the water.

Maui is never quiet on 4th of July! All those neighborhood fireworks! Love to see the aereals and miss the Wailea shows. Go Lahaina!
Hi Marilyn – yeah, Lahaina will definitely be the place to be this July 4th.
Too bad Wailea no longer has a fireworks display. It’s been a while — 3 or 4 years since they’ve had one? Who knows, maybe if we keep our fingers crossed they could still offer something this year. 🙂
I want to be on Maui for the 4th! Sounds like so much fun!
Janet – yes, lots of fun stuff — enough to stay busy the whole day.
Can anyone tell me some things to do on the 4th in Maui. Also can you give me any details on any road races. I am taking a vacation.
Jake – the above post provides a list of things to do on July 4th in Maui!
I’m not aware of any fun runs on July 4th. If I hear of any for that date, I’ll post them here.
Are you positive there are no fireworks in Wailea? Was that well researched? The best way to find out for sure is to make some contacts to the major hotels and Shops at Wailea…. The Grand Wailea is a good source to get information. I have been to may of them over the years living here on Maui
Gaia — Yes, this is well researched!
I have verified with Grand Wailea that ALL official fireworks will be in the Lahaina area. There are no reports of any fireworks in Wailea.
Coming to spend the 4th in Maui from Vegas! Sounds GREAT!!! Im excited to be there with Good family, food, & FUN! SEE Ya Soon! 😀 Thanks for sharing this info!
Awesome, Patty! Lot’s of great stuff going on in Maui for July 4th. Have a great time!
