The Aloha International Piano Festival (AIPF) is a week-long celebration of music that welcomes pianists of all ages—from Hawaii and around the world—to learn, perform, and grow together.

Alongside the Festival, the Keʻalohi International Piano Competition shines a spotlight on extraordinary young pianists, inspiring audiences and connecting Hawai‘i to a global network of music lovers.

Founded in 2006 by pianist Lisa Nakamichi, the Aloha International Piano Festival (AIPF) is a non-profit organization committed to educating Hawaii’s students and teachers. AIPF addresses three main needs: the need for music teacher training, the need for low-cost music concerts and music education opportunities, and the need for high-caliber classes and lessons for piano students.
