Lakona Bay Kastam Festival

Lakona Bay Kastam Festival is a two-day event organized by Chief John Star, Father Levi (a local Anglican pastor), and the villagers to promote and develop kastom in the Lakona Bay region.

The Lakona Bay Kastam Festival will welcome visitors with open arms to explore the Gaua Islands' indigenous customs. Traditional dances, wood and stone sculpting, musical performances, traditional magic shows, bonfires, feasts, and more will be performed.

Everyone is welcome to attend and enjoy the local custom dances, singing, music, and arts from Vanuatu's Northern Islands, which are hosted by the people of Lakona Bay. Yachts will be able to moor on the beach exactly beneath the shadow of the huge Mt Garet volcano. Cruising boats will be able to moor on the beach, right beneath the shadow of the mountains.

Date: August 23rd - 24th
