TUVALU
Pasifika 2010 Festival - Nukufetau Dancers
The Pasifika Festival held in New Zealand in March of each year is one of the most significant cultural and community festivals in the South Pacific and is the world's largest Festival of its kind. The Festival is a chance for Pacific Island communities to showcase their traditions and cultural heritage and to extend their hospitality to visitors both in New Zealand and from around the world.
This Web site shares and showcases many aspects of the beautiful traditional culture of Tuvalu in general ( Pasifika 2010 Festival - Nukufetau Dancers ) and has been kindly made available by Hermina Hotesi (courtesy Hermina's very kind Aunty). We all very sincerely appreciate and thank you Hermina and your Aunty for sharing these wonderful images with us all.
