KnokX Pro Entertainment says MANA — The Polynesian Revue & Luau: The Final Journey of Robert Louis Stevenson will run monthly at Treasure Island Las Vegas through December 2026. The show pairs a Polynesian feast with live dance, music and fire in an indoor ballroom on the Strip.

Why it matters: - MANA gives Las Vegas visitors and locals a Polynesian luau-and-live-revue experience on the Strip without traveling to the Pacific. - The production connects a familiar literary figure, Robert Louis Stevenson, to Polynesian history, culture and performance. - Each ticket bundles dinner and entertainment, which makes the show a full evening attraction rather than a standalone performance.

What happened: - KnokX Pro Entertainment announced monthly performances of MANA — The Polynesian Revue & Luau: The Final Journey of Robert Louis Stevenson at Treasure Island Las Vegas through December 2026. - The first listed performance is Saturday, Sept. 19, 2026. - Additional performances are scheduled for Oct. 23, Nov. 20 and Dec. 18, 2026. - The show takes place in the Treasure Island Las Vegas indoor ballroom at 3300 Las Vegas Blvd. South in Las Vegas.

The details: - MANA tells the story of Robert Louis Stevenson, author of Treasure Island, and his journey across the South Pacific. - Stevenson’s travels included Tahiti, Hawaiʻi, New Zealand and Samoa, where he made his home and was buried atop Mount Vaea. - The production uses Polynesian dance, music, theatrical storytelling and cinematic projection to move the audience from island to island. - The cast includes respected Polynesian performers and cultural artists. - Fonoti Reno Anoa‘i created the production and presents it through KnokX Pro Entertainment. - Runi Tafeaga, founder of Hot Lava Productions, serves as cultural dance director and creative choreographer. - Atoa Ripley serves as host and featured vocalist. - Wailana Lee appears as Queen Kapiʻolani. - The finale honors Stevenson, known to Samoan people as Tusitala, or “Teller of Tales,” and features multiple Fire Knife Warriors. - Each $89 ticket includes a full Polynesian luau feast and the theater show. - The menu includes roasted pig, island-inspired entrées, traditional favorites and tropical desserts. - Tickets, show information and group reservations are available at Treasure Island and Mana Vegas.

Between the lines: - The production is also a personal project for Anoa‘i, who said he wanted to use live-event skills from professional wrestling and arena shows to bring his heritage to the center stage. - The show aims to position Polynesian food, music, dance and hospitality as the main attraction, not just the backdrop. - Treasure Island’s ballroom setting lets the production use projection and staging to create a South Pacific atmosphere inside a resort venue.

What's next: - MANA is set to continue with monthly dates through Dec. 18, 2026. - Treasure Island and KnokX Pro Entertainment are selling tickets and group packages for the remaining performances. - The production may build an ongoing audience if the monthly format proves popular on the Strip.

The bottom line: - MANA is betting that a Polynesian feast-and-show format can stand out in Las Vegas by combining cultural storytelling, live performance and a built-in dinner experience.
