[Long Beach] SANCTIONED AKA SPORT KITE COMPETITION

[Overland Park] The Kansas City Kite Club flys are a gathering of kite enthusiasts in and around the Kansas City area. We meet on the second Sunday of every month at Johnson County Community College, 1-5 to fly kites, share kite stories, and expose more people to kiting. In short we enjoy the comaraderie and fellowship of each other and have fun! Most of our flies include music provided by the Kansas City Kite Club sound system which helps create a real festive atmosphere. Come join us.

[Brookings-Harbor] This non-competitive, invitational event has been described as "a jewel" of kiting festivals.

[South Bend] Mars is sponsered by the Optimist Club of Greater South Bend as their main charity fund raiser.

[Berkeley] The Berkeley Kite Festival & West Coast Kite Championships is produced by HIGHLINE KITES OF BERKELEY and is co-sponsored by the City of Berkeley. It takes place annually on the last weekend of July at Cesar E. Chavez Park, which is located at the north end of the Berkeley Marina in Berkeley, California. The park’s open rolling hills, and proximity to the Golden Gate’s seemingly ever-present winds, make it a hot bed for all forms of kiting, and the perfect site for a kite festival. This confluence of land, sea, and weather, have combined with the efforts of hundreds of dedicated volunteers from the American Kiteflier’s Association, the Bay Area Sport Kite League, the Northern California Kite Club, and Berkeley’s Waterfornt Regulars to make the Berkeley Kite Festival & West Coast Kite Championships one of the biggest and most successful festivals of it’s type in the North America. As one kite flyer put it,
