Suva - Fiji - Pacific Harbour Cultural Extravaganza

An amazing performance of several different cultural activities from Fiji. Fire walking, mock fights, singing, dances and much more. If you ever get a chance to see this i would highly recommend it.

Fiji Arts Village, I had the privilege and the honour to work there as a performer. I performed with some of these great dancers and I also participated in the Vilavilairevo or the Traditional Firewalking Ceremony.

Wow😮 there are some similarities that are so visible with Papuan culture (especially the island of Biak), the first is walking on rocks with hot temperatures (Apen bayeren) The second is burning the stone itself or called "Barapen" which is where this tradition is carried out when there is something big or In particular, I want to show gratitude to the creator by cooking food such as meat, tubers, vegetables, and coconut, and this tradition has been very old or passed down from generation to generation.

We are so close to culture, and that will always be the identity or self of the true successor of the place itself

[@eparamaravinatata1041]

In fiji only the people of beqa are known to be able to walk on hot stones and can heal a person who suffers from burns of any sort.

I am under the opinion that people of color should not put their culture and dance on display for strangers. I think those things should only be on display when those cultures are having something offical.

[@Samizouza]

Well that's your opinion but it's fine with us as part of introducing the Fijian or islander experience to tourists and basically anyone besides VIPs. And color in itself is like a foreign concept in Fiji where it's so unheard of since we're more used to seeing personality and character and not so much what they look like physically. Basically we don't really care if a person is white, black, brown or whatever since it's all about personality whether you're cool, fun, outgoing or just plain boring. 😁

[@Wayaboy10]

Fijians are proud people and proud of our cultures and traditions... All these performance and meke(dance) has been entertaining foreigners ever since they 1st step foot on our shores... That is the Fijian arts n theatre as they would say in the western world..

[@elleyonaspg9580]

MY OPINION. Don't see anything wrong with cultural exchange, because when you understand it, most ancient civilizations have similar cultural performances celebrating Astrological Events and Nature, expressed in their own Cultural Expressions and experience. The only thing bad about it is when foreigners first bastardize, then appropriate and misappropriate the culture. This should be guarded against.@758🇱🇨

The itaukei were already educated, very eloquent, very rich but you don’t learn about these things, because the historians (Kaivalangi) that write the HISTORY, they write it with their own tinted spectacles of what they want to portray. Do you also truly and honestly believe that Udre Udre was a cannibal? The BIGGEST cannibal in the history of mankind is a kaivalangi. Take a look around the world who is killing women and children is this proxy wars being fought, especially in the Middle East. It is the Kaivalangi (the real cannibals) who is doing all the killing but they blame Muslims. Of course the itaukei were at war with each other, all protocols of war were to be followed ie NO WOMEN AND CHILDREN WERE TO BE KILLED!! Now you tell me who is the real cannibal; the White Christians or the itaukei. Take a listen to Madeleine Albright (former Secretary of State - a Christian) kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYGUgHR6bs-Gl6ssi=d9mBzTb8YwFNcmwn kzbin.info/www/bejne/h4PMnqycot9jg6Msi=bPQKoDyAqvpJHfl5
