Jazz Maui presents Sunset Jazz featuring Swing Star on Sunday, January 18, 2026 at the Chocolate Factory, in Lahaina. Swing Star is honoring the music of guitarist Django Reinhrdt (1910-1953) playing gypsy jazz, bossa nova and other music in the style of Reinhardt’s Hot Club of France. The weekly Sunset Jazz concert series features world-class live jazz music, sunset views and chocolate/beverage pairings. Seating is limited and often sold out so advance ticket purchase is required and tickets are available at https://www.mauichocolatetour.com/sunset-jazz/ or JazzMaui.org.

Held in the upstairs open-air pavilion, the Chocolate Factory features a carefully curated wine, spirits and beer list. The menu includes three flights of chocolate and beverage pairings and pairings-by-the-glass for purchase. Chocolate Sommeliers are on hand to assist with pairings or imbibers can create their own. Sweet and savory snacks are also available from the café menu.

Maui Ku’ia Estate Chocolate, through its Chocolate Laulima program, supports local nonprofit organizations such as Arts Education for Children Group/Jazz Maui. Proceeds from concert ticket sales benefit Jazz Maui’s music education programs.
