#Merrie Monarch Festival 2024
Travelers to Big Island should plan ahead for Easter weekend and Merrie Monarch Hula Festival
The week-long Merrie Monarch cultural festival is expected to draw thousands of participants and enthusiasts to Hawai‘i Island, which could mean increased crowds and limited parking at Hawai‘i’s five busiest airports. The Hilo International Airport in particular is expected to be busy throughout the festival week, and travelers flying into and out of Hilo should plan accordingly.
