This year, we’re honoring the 55th anniversary of Lanakila Meals on Wheels, celebrating the joy of sharing a meal and the smiles that come with it. Food is more than nourishment—it’s a way to connect, celebrate, and make memories.

So come hungry for fun, be inspired by your community, and leave happy knowing that you’re making a difference. Bite into something truly good at INSPO! 2026.

This lively, flavor‑packed showdown is a ticketed experience, giving attendees exclusive access to sample competing musubi creations and vote for their favorites. It’s bold, it’s fun, and it’s one of the tastiest ways to be part of INSPO!
