The Polynesian Cultural Center in Laie, Hawaii will lay off 10 percent of its full time staff, about 15 to 25 employees, citing a tourism downturn and reduced attendance. Notices indicate employment ends Sept 30, 2025.
Regional forecasts point to a mild recession in Hawaii with declining visitor arrivals and spending, adding pressure on attractions like PCC. Some affected staff could be rehired if visitor volumes rebound.
