Culture Night at BYU‍–‍Hawaii

Culture Night is an annual tradition for student-led clubs at BYU–Hawaii. It is a student development and engagement opportunity that celebrates the university mission, cultural diversity, and promotes peace internationally.

Culture Night will be held on a single night on Wednesday, March 11, instead of two nights, as previously done. Each club’s performance will be limited to three minutes, with an additional one-minute transition allotted for entering and exiting the stage. Students may only participate in up to two club performances during Culture Night.
