Made in Maui County Festival
When you see that Maui is throwing a festival with unique products before the holidays, mark it on the calendar. The Made in Maui Festival is a gem offering delicious food, beautiful products, and local entertainment on stage. Here’s our recap from the 2022 festival (this last weekend!)
Maui Shopping
We were again blown away by the variety and quality showcased this year at the MACC. Paintings, crafts, plants, woodworking, clothing, hot sauce, breads, cookies, sauces, coffee,… It goes on and on. This is the perfect festival to attend before Christmas shopping, whether you’re visiting or a local.
Some highlights: The Maui Cookie Lady, Shaka Pops, HI Spice, Mime Furniture, and so many more!
Maui Food Trucks
When entering, all the food trucks are parked on the lawn to the left, including Al’s BBQ Pit, Bang Um Out Grindz, Dope BBQ, and many more.
Highlight: We had a few plates from Pastele House including a garlic steak plate and a Hawaiian Lau Lau plate. Also, the poi mochi were incredible.
