In anticipation of the holiday celebrations, the statue of King Kamehameha I was decked with colorful plumeria lei at a special ceremony Friday afternoon in downtown Honolulu.
The 103rd Annual King Kamehameha Celebration Floral Parade will begin Saturday at 9 am on King King Street towards Iolani Palace and will end at Monsarrat Avenue and Kapiolani Park. Saturday is also a free hoolaulea at Aloha Tower.
The statue of King Kamehameha I, one of Oahu's most photographed monuments, was made by American artist Thomas Ridgeway Gould, who lived from 1818 to 1881.
King Kamehameha's holiday, a state party, will take place on June 11th.
