Life on the Big Island is a little bit slower… and locals like it that way. The natural beauty and ecological features of the island are a draw for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. Test your chutzpah at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, home to the longest volcanic eruption in recorded history, or climb to the indescribably beautiful summit of Mauna Kea. At the end of the day, there’s nothing more refreshing than a quivering plate of fresh poke, followed by a fruity shave ice.

This historic 1925 movie theater in downtown Hilo reopened in 1999 after being closed for 17 years. Our Mission is to revitalize, restore, and sustain the Historic Palace Theater as a venue that will educate, entertain, and inspire our diverse community. The Palace opened in October 1925 with the Silent Film “The Son of Zorro” Starring Douglas Fairbanks. Since then the Palace Theater has shown many types of films including Festivals, Documentaries, Independent, Sleepers, Art House, Academy Award Winners, Silver Screen Classics & still even shows Silent Films accompanied by the Palace Organ. But the Palace is a lot more then just a movie theater. Many Famous Musicians & Music Festivals, for example, have preformed here, covering a large array of music. Classical, Rock, Jazz, Blues, Electronic, Hawaiian & many other Traditional World Music acts. Live Theater, Musicals, Ballets & Halaus have also graced the Palace stage. Not to mention private parties and Hilo’s Special Events May Day Lei Day, Black & White Night & Chinese New Year. This Historical Theater has been in the hearts of many for almost a century, and we hope it will become a treasured memory for you as well. It’s through volunteered time & charitable donations that restorations & operations are possible, so that the Palace can continue entertaining the people & visitors of the Big Island for many more years.
Not air-conditioned, best in the winter to go see a movie. Very impressed with the variety of films at The Palace.

Our 3-screen luxury cinema, bistro and bar offers an online seat reservation system, luxurious love seats with swing out tray tables and a gourmet "fun food" menu that you can enjoy in our open air lanai lounge or in your cinema seat. We're also the state's first movie theatre to offer a full-service bar and drink menu. Established in 2017.
We asked our waiter Mike for a recommendation...he said that the burgers and pizza were the most popular orders, however, we wanted something a little more “celebratory” to cap our wonderful week, before we left for the airport and home. We found a hidden gem in the filet and lobster...which 3 of our party of 4 ordered, and the 4th ordered the filet mignon and bacon tacos. Mike laughed when we all ordered differently....medium rare, medium, medium well and well. All four of us were thrilled as the orders came back cooked to perfection of each of our various tastes. The drinks were wonderful, and special kudos to Mike, who brought a plate full of maraschino cherries, as he obviously overheard my wife exclaim “I could eat a dozen of these cherries”! We finished our meal with coffee (Kona of course) and an exceptionally rich and substantial carrot cake (yum). We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect dinner...the entrees, drinks, dessert, and the exceptional service from Mike!

The Regal Cinema at the Keauhou Shopping Center is our go-to spot in Kona for enjoying movies :)). It’s rarely crowded here, and the well maintained facility offers all the necessary amenities (plus the staff are pleasant and friendly). If you’re looking for a way to spend a hot afternoon or rainy day, then you’ll find that this theater will be a great option... enjoy!
