Polish Ambassador Two-Night Concert to Raise Funds for Youth

A two-night music event at Anaina Hou Community Park will bring national electronic acts to Kaua‘i on Friday, Jan. 23 and Saturday, Jan. 24, 2026, with proceeds directed to a local youth program. The Polish Ambassador and BoomBassador will headline the shows, supported by Andy and Lara and Boombox; organizers are positioning the weekend as a mix of live performance and community fundraising for Anaina Hou’s Lokahi Program, which addresses bullying and youth suicide prevention.

The event listing published to the Kaua‘i Now community calendar outlines day-of highlights and logistics. Doors will open both evenings, and a yoga on the lawn session is scheduled as part of the onsite programming. Ticketing will be general admission standing room, with a limited number of two-day passes available for attendees who want to attend both performances. Concessions and food will be available on site, and organizers note accessibility reminders will be provided for guests who require accommodations.

Attendees should prepare for standard venue protocols: the concert will be held rain or shine, a light bag search will be conducted at entry, there will be no re-entry once patrons leave, and shirts and shoes are required on the grounds. Those planning to attend both nights should weigh the limited two-day pass availability and the no re-entry policy when arranging arrival times and parking.

Beyond entertainment value, the event is notable for its community-focused fundraising model. Proceeds will support the Lokahi Program, an Anaina Hou initiative focused on bullying prevention and suicide prevention among youth. Local nonprofit partnerships like this channel ticket revenue into direct services and prevention efforts, reducing reliance on constrained public resources and amplifying community-based responses to mental health challenges among young people.

Economically, music events of this scale can generate short-term spending in the local economy through concessions, food sales, and ancillary spending by attendees on transportation and supplies. For an island community, weekend events also carry considerations for traffic, parking, and park maintenance costs that local organizers and county officials typically coordinate in advance.

Kaua‘i residents interested in attending should review the event rules and ticketing options, and plan for accessibility needs and the no re-entry policy. The concerts offer both a cultural night out and a tangible way to support local efforts to prevent bullying and youth suicide through direct fundraising for the Lokahi Program.
