Sakada Day is an annual community celebration that recognizes and honors the first major wave of Filipino
migration to Hawai'i, which began with the recruitment of the first 15 sakadas—plantation laborers brought to
Hawai'i under contract by Hawai'i's Sugar Planters`Association.These first 15 men arrived in Honolulu on
December 20, 1906. In 2015, Governor David Ige signed a bill into law officially designating December 20 as
Sakada Day in Hawai'i to commemorate the arrival,sacrifices, legacy, and historic contributions to making
significant improvements for all plantation laborers and Hawaii's labor movement. Sakada Day has been celebrated
annually in Hawai'i Island beginning in 2015 with special recognition to living Sakadas. The Sakada Day program
includes exhibits educating the public about Sakada history through oral histories and archival materials,
recognition of Sakadas and their descendants, Filipino refreshments, and cultural performances. This year, we
celebrate 120 years since the first wave of Sakadas arrived. The theme for Sakada Day 2026 is"Sakada 120:
Rooted in History, Inspiring New Voices,"and seeks to connect Sakada descendants and future generations of
Filipinos to Sakada history.
