The Merry Monarch Festival - USA

Floating Date in April
The Merry Monarch Festival
In April many citys along the coast of Hawaii celabrate The Merry Monarch Festival. It is a time of joy and happyness. The festival lasts two weeks and its full of dancing and joy. It was first celabrated in 1965, and it is in memory of the fun-loving King David Kalakaua. King David was king between 1874-91. He was Hawaii's last ruler. And in the first two weeks in April everyone in Hawaii pays their respects to the lost and great ruler. So if you have the holiday blues gather around some friends and enjoy the Merry Monarch Festival!
