As Hawai‘i’s oldest and largest storytelling celebration, this Honolulu Department of Parks and Recreation event honors the tradition of perpetuating Hawaiian culture and heritage through oral history. In its 36 years of existence, the festival has been presented in many locations and adapted to the times, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, the storytelling sessions from the 32nd and 33rd Annual Talk Story Festivals remain available to everyone around the world on this website. Enjoy those archived videos, or come check out the festival in-person this October!
