Set the island mood from the moment guests arrive with a custom luau letter banner. Our tropical banners are laser cut from glitter or matte cardstock, pre-strung on white twine, and ready to hang wherever the party takes you. Turquoise, coral, and ocean blue pair naturally with tropical flowers, tiki torches, leis, and pineapple centerpieces for an authentic Hawaiian vibe.
Luau banners work beautifully as a focal point behind a tiki bar, above a buffet table loaded with tropical fruit, or draped across a fence for a backyard pool party. They photograph well in natural light too, so your party pics will look as good as the party felt. From summer pool parties to Hawaiian-themed birthdays and tropical bridal showers, a bold letter banner pulls the whole theme together without a lot of effort.

Frequently Asked Questions
What colors work best for a luau banner?
Tropical themes look great with ocean-inspired and vibrant colors. Turquoise, coral, green, and orange are the most popular choices for luau banners. Gold glitter is another beautiful option that adds a warm, sunset-like sparkle. You can browse all 26 available color options on the product page and pick whatever combination fits your tropical theme.
Can I hang these banners outdoors?
Yes, our banners work well outdoors for the duration of a party. They're made from sturdy cardstock and pre-strung on twine, so they hold up fine in calm weather. For outdoor setups, we recommend taping or tying the ends securely and keeping the banner in a sheltered spot — under a patio cover, on a fence, or across a pergola. Just bring them inside if wind or rain picks up.
What's the difference between a luau banner and a general tropical banner?
They're the same product — the only difference is the phrase you choose. Hawaiian-specific sayings like "Aloha," "Mahalo," and "Ohana" lean into a traditional luau feel, while phrases like "Tropical Vibes" or "Paradise Found" work for any island-inspired party. All banners are custom made with your choice of font, color, and size.
