Welcome to Te Vara Nui Village, home of the world’s only Over-Water Theatrical Polynesian Show — a cultural spectacle that goes far beyond the standard island night.
Nestled in lush tropical gardens and framed by cascading rock waterfalls, our unique over-water stage combines floating and fixed platforms across a serene lagoon — creating an immersive setting like no other in the South Pacific.
At the heart of the experience is “THE LEGEND OF TONGAITI" — an electrifying theatrical performance of:
Ancestral storytelling
High-energy drumming
Elegant Polynesian dancing
Fire artistry & cinematic lighting
All performed by Rarotonga’s top dancers, drummers, and musicians.
Your evening also includes a sumptuous Island–Western Fusion buffet, lovingly prepared by our local and international chefs — the perfect pairing to a night of culture, connection, and celebration.
This is more than dinner and a show.
It’s a once-in-a-lifetime cultural experience — found only at Te Vara Nui Village.
