The 99th Maui County Fair, happening Oct. 1–4, 2026 at the County’s War Memorial Complex, will bring four days of live entertainment to the main stage, featuring a mix of Hawaiian music, hula, local favorites and island contemporary performers for fairgoers of all ages.

This year, the entertainment won’t stop at the stage: Every night of the fair at 8:30 p.m., fairgoers can look to the sky for a special Maui County Fair Drone Show, lighting up the night above the fairgrounds.

Attendees can also enjoy listening to a synchronized soundtrack during each drone show by downloading the Pyrocast App by Ignite Firing Systems on a mobile device. Open the app and enter Show Code: H2J8 to connect to the official Drone Light Show music. Then at 8:30 p.m. nightly, viewers can turn up the volume and experience the drone show with accompanying music.

From the opening of the fair on Thursday evening through Sunday night, the main stage will showcase Maui and Hawaiʻi entertainers:

“Entertainment is just one part of the four-day Maui County Fair experience, which brings together the community for rides, food, exhibits, products and services, family activities and longtime fair traditions,”  said Fair Director Daryl Fujiwara. “Come early, stay late, enjoy the entertainment and look to the sky at 8:30 p.m. every night for the Maui County Fair Drone Show.”

The Maui County Fair brings residents and visitors together for four days of food, entertainment, culture and family fun. Mayor Richard Bissen spearheaded the fair’s return after a six-year hiatus, and earlier this year proposed—and the Maui County Council approved—a $1.5 million General Fund appropriation to support this year’s fair through nonprofit Festivals of Aloha.
