The first step to planning a fantastic party is picking a theme that is fun and interesting. The possibilities are endless, though a Hawaiian motif is one of the more popular choices as well as one of the most versatile. Selecting the right type of luau entertainers is one way to cater the festivities to fit the guest dynamic and really send the wow factor over the top.

Location is going to have an impact on the types of performances that will be suitable for the party. Holding the celebration inside a home, restaurant or hotel is going to limit the span of options that will be suitable for confined spaces. Backyards, parks and beaches offer a lot of open area and expand the choices, allowing for more extravagant shows to be booked.

It is possible to have a Polynesian dance act with just one performer, however more dancers, an emcee to introduce and explain and live musicians can really put the show over the top. This type of performance usually features several different Pacific island styles such as Hawaiian, Tahitian, Samoan and New Zealand. Bigger troupes allow for multiple costume switches and props for a more authentic and energetic experience.

Beautiful ladies performing the gently swaying Polynesian dances are always a big hit, but the warrior dancers can be just as crowd pleasing. Large, muscled and intense men wearing traditional island costumes and sporting tribal tattoos give a powerhouse performance full of dynamic energy. They reenact ceremonial style routines representing the quest for bravery, power, strength and honor in the face of battle.

When space and budget allow, the spectacular show put on by fire-knife dancers is guaranteed to impress and excite guests of all ages. These routines are fast paced and filled with action as flaming knives are tossed and twirled in a frenzy. This makes an excellent choice for a grand finale though it is best performed at night and one should make sure it is done in an open space and that all necessary fire permits are obtained.

As an alternative to the fire-knife show, or as a lead in, the fire poi routine is another great choice. This dance comes from New Zealand and features flaming balls on being spun and twirled on the ends of long cords, creating magnificent light designs in the air. Again, precautions should be taken to insure maximum safety during this type of performance.

Encouraging audience participation increases the level of fun. Learning to do a dance or twirl the balls, blowing on a conch or beating a drum with the performers is just an extra level of excitement. When allowed to get involved, guests have even better memories to share.

The range of luau entertainers is versatile enough to fill virtually any party need from the very simple to the most extravagant. Dancers, musicians, bird trainers, craftsmen, singers and celebrity impersonators are just a few of the many options available. Consider the space available before booking acts and always be sure to check local ordinances if fire performances are being considered.
