Rooted in Lahaina: New marketplace brings local businesses back downtown

‘Ulu O Lele Marketplace opened on Front Street in Lahaina, giving about two dozen small businesses a place to return downtown after many were devastated by the August 2023 wildfire. Visitors gathered for the opening, browsing local shops and food trucks and enjoying live entertainment. The marketplace occupies the former Outlets of Maui site near Waineʻe and Papalaua streets.
