Heiva Prize night is the last night of Heiva. A fine rain brings luck, they say

Prizes for best costumes, best dancing, best songs, best choreography, best music, best solo and best ensemble performance etc. etc are assigned.

Heiva stadium is filled with joyful representatives from all the Pacific

Sponsors from Air Tahiti and other local companies give the prizes.

And after every prize, dances start again and again until late night. Long live Heiva!
