The Ōpio Pop-Up Makeke is a vibrant community event designed to empower and showcase the entrepreneurial spirit of Hawaii's youth. Formerly known as the Children's Business Fair, the event has been rebranded to better reflect its focus on Native Hawaiian culture and youth entrepreneurship. We are seeking youth vendors and welcoming the public to this FREE event on Sunday, July 21.

The purpose of the Ōpio Pop-Up Makeke is to provide young entrepreneurs, aged 11-19, with a platform to display and sell their unique, culturally inspired products and services. This event aims to nurture the entrepreneurial skills of our youth, celebrate Native Hawaiian heritage, and foster a sense of community and collaboration.
