Hula dancing contest or just for fun
For food... my parents throw a luau every year, I can bug my mom for recipes that work.
One I know for sure is Hawaiian meatballs - meatballs seasoned in a tropical sauce with pineapples, served with toothpicks.
Are you providing all the food, or are the guests helping? My mom would use her book that had very basic, simple recipes - then the guests could sign up for the category of food they wanted - ie appetizer, dessert, etc. She would then give them a recipe to follow and bring, to ensure there was a balance in the eats. You REALLY don't want 12 upside down pineapple cakes, believe me.
