Whether you prefer to eat your mango in bread, jam or just off the tree, come celebrate Hawai‘i’s favorite fruit at Mango Jam Honolulu. It’s a free annual event for the whole family with live entertainment, food and craft booths, cultural activities, a beer garden and a farmers market.
Located in the backyard of Honolulu Hale, Mango Jam Honolulu features some of the best Mango offerings on O‘ahu. Park for free at the Frank F. Fasi Municipal Parking Lot or across the street at the new Joint Management Traffic Center.
With an all-day musical lineup, catch Iron Mango, 10 Feet, Kapena and more on the Mango Stage. Browse Mango Row for the latest designs and crafts from Hawai‘i creatives. Pick up a snack or cocktail at the Mango Lounge and Cafe, or grab some local goodies from the Mango Market.
Saturday kicks off with a recipe contest to find the best “Sweet Mango Delight” and “Savory Mango Masterpiece.” Then, who will be crowned master of the mango? Taste along as chefs from two popular local restaurants — Vino and Sansei — battle it out during the BBQ Cook-off.
With free cultural activities for the whole family, you can practice pounding poi with a papa and pohaku at a ku‘i ‘ai class, get hands-on with lomilomi massage and lā‘au lapa‘au, or show off your skills at the Makahiki games.
