On November 11, 2017 (event starts at 8am) at 8:30 in the morning, over 200 churches across the island chain will sound their bells to honor the Queen, just as it happened 100 years ago at the announcement made at the exact hour by Colonel Curtis Iaukea.

Church bells will toll 100 times, pahu will sound 100 times, 100 pū will resonate, 100 ‘ōlapa will dance in honor. Come and be a part of Aloha Lili‘u on November 11, 2017 at the Queen’s Promenade and Statue at 8:30 in the morning.
