Looking for an authentic Maui experience beyond the beaches? Add the weekly Maui Sunday Market to your itinerary.
Every Sunday from 4:00 to 8:00 p.m., the Kahului Shopping Center comes alive with the sights, sounds, and flavors of Maui. Visitors can browse locally made products, enjoy ono island food from food trucks, listen to live entertainment, and support Maui’s small businesses, all in one welcoming, family-friendly setting. Admission and parking are free, making it an easy stop for travelers exploring the island.
One of the best parts of the Maui Sunday Market is its relaxed local atmosphere. Instead of shopping in large tourist centers, you’ll meet island artisans, sample fresh Hawaiian-inspired dishes, discover unique handmade souvenirs, and experience the warm aloha spirit that makes Maui so special. The market is presented by the Maui Food Technology Center, which supports local entrepreneurs and Maui’s growing food community.
The market also fits perfectly into a day of exploring Central Maui. Spend the morning at Iao Valley, visit the Maui Tropical Plantation, enjoy lunch in Wailuku, then head to the Maui Sunday Market to finish your day with great food, live music, and shopping before returning to Kihei.
Having your own rental car gives you the freedom to experience events like these at your own pace without relying on tour schedules or rideshares.
At Kihei Rent A Car, we love sharing local experiences that help visitors discover the real Maui. Whether you’re staying in Kihei, Wailea, Kaanapali, or Lahaina, the Maui Sunday Market is a wonderful way to spend a Sunday evening and support the local community.
