Bula Festival

In the original dialect, the term Bula is used to greet (meaning hello or welcome), making the event one of the year's most popular event in Fiji. Bula, one of Fiji's most famous festivals, is held to recognize the country's history and heritage. It is a very similar event that takes place on the other side of Viti Levu in the town of Nadi just a few weeks prior. Annually, it is held as a feel-good festival celebrating all things Fiji.

The festival features a wide range of activities, including music, dance, local arts and culture, and more. The city of Nadi is usually filled by local artists displaying their work. A parade takes place inside Prince Charles Parks, bringing locals and visitors together in dance and celebrations. Surprisingly, the Bula Festival Fiji concludes with a beauty contest, which is held every year and culminates in the crowning of "Miss Bula." This definitely is the highlight of the Bula Festival.
